Is that MS Diagnosis Accurate?
Is it true that a significant number of patients being treated for MS may not actually have the disease? What are the red flags — warnings that something about the patient’s condition does not meet the accepted MS diagnostic criteria — that need to be investigated?    Join us in this eMultipleSclerosis Review podcast, as Neuroimmunologist Dr. Gabrielle Macaron from Saint Joseph University’s Hotel Dieu de France Hospital in Beirut, Lebanon, and the Cleveland Clinic’s Mellen Center for Multiple Sclerosis, explains strategies to reduce misdiagnosis of MS.  Take our post-test to claim CME credits.

Nonpharmacologic Symptom Management
In this Issue: Fatigue. Urinary dysfunction. Constipation. Spasticity and gait problems. Providing relief from these common MS symptoms often requires clinicians to go beyond the prescription pad to recommend nonpharmacologic treatments. What works? What doesn’t? What does the evidence say?  Join us as Dr. W. Oliver Tobin from the Mayo Clinic discusses these questions in this eMultipleSclerosis Review podcast. Take our post-test to claim CME credits.

Treatment Considerations for Aging Patients
As people with MS age, how does their response to their long-term DMT change? Is there a time when disease-modifying therapy can be safely discontinued? In which patients? At what age? What role do comorbidities play in making these decisions?   Join us as we discuss these questions with Dr. Burcu Zeydan from the Mayo Clinic in this eMultipleSclerosis Review podcast.  Take our post-test to claim CME credits.

MS and the COVID-19 Vaccine: What Do We Know and What Should We Do About It?
COVID-19 vaccination. For many people with multiple sclerosis, it’s not a simple and straightforward process. The DMT they’re currently taking to control disease progression and moderate their symptoms — particularly if it’s a beta cell- depleting agent — may prevent the vaccine from working as it’s supposed to. What do clinicians need to know, and how should they explain it to their patients?   Dr. Joseph Sabatino from the University of California San Francisco presented the basics in his recent newsletter issue; now he brings that information into the clinic in this eMultipleSclerosis Review podcast.  Take our post-test to claim CME credits.

Shared Decision Making in MS: The Why and The How
Shared decision-making — what does it mean in multiple sclerosis? Can it really help providers more fully understand their patients’ concerns? Can it motivate patients to more readily and enthusiastically take ownership of their disease? And most important, how can it be developed in the clinic?  Join us in this eMultipleSclerosis Review podcast, as we talk about the why and how of shared decision-making in MS with PA Lisa Fox from the Department of Neurology at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore.   Take our post-test to claim CME credits.

Clinical Approaches and DMT Choices
As the number of new MS therapies continues to grow, so does the uncertainty about which management approach — escalation or highly effective disease-modifying therapy — is best for each patient. What are the patient-specific factors that indicate the most appropriate DMT selection? What’s known about the potential longer-term risks associated with highly effective therapies?  That’s the focus of our discussion with Dr. Yujie Wang from the University of Washington and Johns Hopkins University, and Dr. Anne Damian-Yacoub from Johns Hopkins University in this eMultipleSclerosis Review podcast.  Take our post-test to claim CME credits.

A Clinical Approach to Comprehensive MS Care
A “comprehensive MS center” — what is it? Which clinicians comprise a “multidisciplinary MS care team?” How does comprehensive MS care work in practice? How does it benefit patients? That’s the focus of this non-CME-accredited eMultipleSclerosis Review podcast, where we answer those questions and more, with our special guest, Dr. Jacqueline Nicholas, System Chief of Neuroimmunology and Multiple Sclerosis at the OhioHealth Multiple Sclerosis Center.   Take our post-test to claim CME credits.

Clinical Challenges of Pediatric MS
Pediatric multiple sclerosis. How different is the disease from adult MS? Which disease-modifying therapies have been trialed and approved for use in children? How common is cognitive impairment in children with MS? How can it be successfully addressed?   These are some of the important questions Drs. Zongqi Xia and Kavita Thakkar from the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center discuss in this clinically focused eMultipleSclerosis Review podcast.  Take our post-test to claim CME credits.

Clinical Decisions: Selecting the Right Disease Modifying Therapy
Selecting the most appropriate Disease Modifying Therapy (DMT) is becoming more complicated for patients with MS and clinicians who treat them. Newer approaches and newer agents are altering the benefit/risk equation, and making the question of which treatment is most appropriate for which patient more difficult to answer.  That’s the focus of our discussion with Dr. Erin Longbrake, Assistant Professor of Neurology and Director of the Multiple Sclerosis Fellowship Program at Yale University, in this eMultipleSclerosis Review podcast.  Take our post-test to claim CME credits.

Clinic Insight — Managing Chronic MS Symptoms
Successful management of multiple sclerosis has gone beyond slowing disease progression and preventing relapses. Improving patients’ health-related quality of life by recognizing and addressing the pervasive chronic symptoms of the disease — spasticity, fatigue, depression, cognitive dysfunction — has become increasingly important. In this eMultipleSclerosis Review Podcast, Dr. Bardia Nourbakhsh from the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine provides clinical insight into reducing the disease burden of these common symptoms.  Take our post-test to claim CME credits.

Minimizing Pregnancy/Postpartum Relapses: A Clinical Perspective
Disease reactivation during and after pregnancy is a challenge facing many women with MS and their clinicians. How can relapses be prevented? What are the benefits of pregnancy planning? What are the risk factors for postpartum MS reactivation? How can they be modified?  These are the questions Dr. Kristen Krysko from the University of California San Francisco addresses in this eMultipleSclerosis Review podcast.   Take our post-test to claim CME credits.
