Optimizing Infectious Disease and Inflammation Management Using NLR, GLR, and CRP

Lupus anticoagulant (LA) is one of the three laboratory criteria used in the diagnosis of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), a serious clinical condition associated with an increased risk of thrombosis, fetal morbidity, and mortality. This workshop will explore current practices alongside guideline recommendations to achieve a high level of diagnostic accuracy while addres...

Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) remains one of the most complex and challenging complications following arthroplasty. Since no single diagnostic test offers 100% accuracy, a combination of methods is often required to improve diagnostic confidence. This online workshop introduces a novel and promising approach: the graphic representation of cell count analysis fro...

This online workshop will focus on D-dimer, a byproduct of the blood clotting and breakdown process that serves as a marker of ongoing coagulation and fibrinolysis. The session will explore its clinical use in ruling out deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), as well as the inherent challenges—such as poor specificity, false positives, and difficulties ...
