Program Description:
While fatigue in depression is easy to observe, it is difficult to characterize and is a leading cause of morbidity in depressed patients. These free, interactive, CME-certified activities examine the role of fatigue in depression and the role of biomarkers in psychiatry. Interactive Learning Modules (ILM) and a Computer Simulation Assessment Tool (CSAT) help you employ effective screening criteria across the multifactorial symptom domains of fatigue, identify its role in the various phases of depression, utilize cutting-edge psychopharmacologic strategies to minimize the occurrence and consequences of fatigue, and review the current role of biomarkers in psychiatry and their clinical application.
