Join us for an informative session on measles, specifically tailored for healthcare professionals working with immunocompromised patients.

This webinar will delve into the unique challenges and risks that measles poses to immunocompromised individuals, including those undergoing treatments such as chemotherapy, organ transplants, living with chronic conditions, or taking medications that weaken the immune system.

We will explore the latest clinical features, epidemiology, and prevention strategies to effectively manage and mitigate the impact of measles in this vulnerable population.

Attendees will gain valuable insights into best practices for vaccination, post-exposure prophylaxis, and infection control measures to ensure the safety and well-being of immunocompromised patients.

Webinar Objectives:

• Understand the clinical features, risks, and complications of measles in immunocompromised patients.
• Review current epidemiology and the global impact of measles outbreaks on immunocompromised populations.
• Discuss best practices for measles vaccination timing and strategies for immunocompromised individuals.
• Examine post-exposure prophylaxis approaches and their effectiveness in preventing measles transmission.
• Identify key infection control measures to protect immunocompromised patients from measles in healthcare settings.
