Description

This module provides an overview of fetal risks of untreated Lyme in cases of congenital transmission and background information about related ICD-11 Codes.

Learning objectives

  1. List fetal risks of untreated Lyme in possible and probable congenital transmission.
  2. Discuss importance of recognition of spirochete transmission from mother to child.
  3. List adverse outcome statistical differences of fetal outcomes in relationship to treatment of infected mothers.

This session, The story of the ICD-11 codes: Congenital Lyme & co-infections, is approved for 0.5 enduring AAFP Prescribed credits.

AAFP Prescribed credit is accepted by the American Medical Association as equivalent to AMA PRA Category 1 credit(s)™ toward the AMA Physician’s Recognition Award. When applying for the AMA PRA, Prescribed credit earned must be reported as Prescribed, not as Category 1.

The AAFP has reviewed One Health Medical Education for a Changing Climate and deemed it acceptable for AAFP credit. Term of approval is from 01/02/2024 to 01/01/2025. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
