Topics to be covered

Depression – Choosing, Changing, and Tweaking Antidepressants
Dr David Horgan

Managing patients with depression is a skill that can always be improved. In this talk, Associate Professor David Horgan will outline the latest evidence-based approach to choosing the most appropriate antidepressant for a particular patient, titrating the dose according to fluctuations in symptoms and overcoming some of the barriers that can commonly inhibit recovery.

MCI - What Can GPs Do About it?
Dr Mark Hohenberg

Mild cognitive impairment sits somewhere between normal age-related cognitive decline and dementia, but it is important to identify and distinguish it from the other conditions. As geriatrician, Dr Mark Hohenberg will explain, the importance of diagnosing mild cognitive impairment lies in the fact that often early intervention can be of help. From finding reversible causes to managing factors that can exacerbate or help alleviate the problem, there are many opportunities for the managing clinician to improve outcomes for these patients. Dr Hohenberg will outline how.

PCOS - New Guidelines & AMH Testing
Prof Helena Teede AM

New evidence-based guidelines to help clinicians assess and manage patients with polycystic ovary syndrome have just been published and are important. In this presentation, Professor Helena Teede AM will provide an update on the changes to clinical practice that are recommended in these new guidelines, including where and when testing for anti-Mullerian hormone is most appropriate.

Common Eye Conditions
Dr Dennis Lowe

Eye complaints are a common presentation in general practice, but despite their frequency, management is not always straightforward. Differentiating between benign eye conditions and those which are potentially vision-threatening is vital. Here, Dr Dennis Lowe will be presenting a practical guide to the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of common ocular and visual complaints, importantly including which symptoms and signs constitute 'red flags' and signal the need for urgent referral.
