Free CME course offered on Lyme disease

The Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) is offering a free online course on Lyme disease.

The interactive course consists of a series of case studies and is based on the IDSA guideline “The Clinical Assessment, Treatment and Prevention of Lyme Disease, Human Granulocytic Anaplasmosis and Babesiosis.” The case studies are designed to educate clinicians regarding the proper diagnosis and treatment of Lyme disease and also provide an opportunity to better understand the IDSA guideline. The course was developed in partnership with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Each case in the course is accredited for 0.25 CME credit. To receive CME credit, the learner must complete at least four of the six cases, score 70% correct or higher on the post-test, and complete the evaluation.

The course is available online.
