The authors disclose in their articles any financial ties they may have with companies that sell healthcare products directly to patients. This helps you, the viewer, make informed decisions about the information presented.

To review the articles, you can download them after having purchased the selection or by going to the source (shown under 'Contents of this selection').

According to EACCME guidelines, you must accumulate at least 0.5 CME credits before submitting to your local professional licensing board. You can combine multiple certificates of completion to reach this minimum threshold. Each certificate can only be used once for credit claims.

Keendoc utilizes advanced software to create these selections, which allows us to keep costs low and provide accessible medical education. While our team carefully reviews each selection, the occasional mistake is inevitable. 

If you notice any inaccuracies, we encourage you to share your feedback in this selection's comment section or via the feedback. This helps us maintain the highest possible standards of accuracy and reliability.
