- Transversal Webinar for healthcare professionals
Short description
The present webinar is focused on the anti-nuclear antibodies. These autoantibodies represent the first screening test in the suspect of a systemic autoimmune diseases, and there is an increasing request of the execution of this test. In fact, currently, it is prescribed by rheumatologists, but also by general practitioners or by other specialists in the frame of outpatients’ clinics or during hospital admissions. In some cases, the evaluation of the results of this test is a specific request for a first rheumatologic consultation.
This webinar explains the basis of the laboratory techniques for their detection and their clinical value in rheumatologic conditions, but also in other diseases. The webinar is divided in two parts (20 minutes in total). The first part is entitled “Anti-nuclear antibodies: test and their specificities” (10 minutes) and the second part is “Anti-nuclear antibodies: the clinical relevance” (10 minutes).
It is addressed to healthcare professionals (general practitioners, internal medicine specialists, or physicians of other medical specialties). The aim is to give some technical but also clinical advice to colleagues for a better understanding of the meaning of this specific lab test, improving their capability to contextualize the results and understanding when it’s necessary to proceed with further tests and diagnostic procedures.
