Los Angeles: Foundations and Frontiers of chILD - February 15, 2024

Los Angeles, CA US
February 15, 2024

Did you know that only 20% of surveyed physicians identified themselves as confident in most areas of diagnosing, understanding evidence based treatment options and disease mechanisms for pulmonary fibrosis in our pediatric patients? The Childhood ILD (chILD) Network has identified these needs in the medical community and aim to significantly improve these statistics.

chILD is a term used to describe over 200 rare conditions of children with diffuse and interstitial lung disease that can be associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Please join us to participate in a series of conversations on the outcomes of these studies and what the data means for the future of these rare conditions in our pediatric patient populations.

Commercial Support

This activity is supported by an independent educational grant from Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals. 

Target Audience

This activity is designed for Pediatricians, Internal Medicine-Pediatrics Physicians, Pediatric and Adult Pulmonologists, Rheumatologists, Oncologists, Immunologists, Pediatric Intensivists, Neonatologists, Radiologists, Pathologists, Advanced Practice Providers, Basic and Translational Scientists, and Clinical Research Coordinators.

Learning Objectives

  • Explain the conditions associated with childhood interstitial and diffuse lung disease (chILD).
  • Review the conditions associated with pulmonary fibrosis in older children.
  • List the diagnostic criteria and ongoing longitudinal follow up measurements in older children with pulmonary fibrosis.
  • Describe the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis in older children with chILD.
  • Identify the interaction needed amongst different health care professionals (pediatricians, different specialists,) with the family and patient.
