Closing Chasms and Optimizing Care in Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia: Expert Perspectives on the Role of Intravenous Iron in the Management of HHT-Associated IDA

This educational initiative is targeted to the community-based multidisciplinary and interprofessional HHT treatment team of primary care physicians, internists, hematologists, oncologists, gastroenterologists, otorhinolaryngologists, allergists, and nurses/nurse practitioners, pharmacists, and physician assistants. Designed as a grassroots, expert-led serial initiative of 4 live, in-person meetings, which are strategically geotargeted to community hospitals and clinics located at least 150 miles the nearest HHT Center of Excellence, this series will be bolstered by a multimodal synergy of Cornerstone learner touchpoints, including a 12-month enduring on Epocrates CME, our Cornerstone Clinical Tool, an episode on the CME-Pod podcast, a Core Clinical Concepts summary review video, and DOL-tethered social media extensions on Twitter (now X). Strategically developed to promote community clinician awareness of HHT and galvanize optimization of HHT-associated ID and IDA management, this initiative will begin with an overview of HHT epidemiology and pathophysiology, emphasizing diverse disease manifestations and clinical presentation, then move into an appraisal of current guideline recommendations for diagnosing, screening, and treating HHT-associated IDA, with an incisive focus on the role of intravenous (IV) iron as iron replacement therapy. Practical differentiators between currently-available IV iron products, inclusive of total dose infusion (TDI) capacity and relative risk for IV iron-induced hypophosphatemia, will be highlighted and emphasized throughout the activity using practical patient case scenarios.
