Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems, insulin pumps, and glucagon delivery devices are important technologies for diabetes management, but can be confusing for patients and healthcare providers alike.

This CE summary provides updates on the latest technologies, including the Dexcom G7, Abbott FreeStyle Libre 3, Tandem t:slim X2, Medtronic MiniMed 770G, glucagon nasal powder, and glucagon autoinjector, as well as the FDA's recent approvals for CGM use in insulin dosing decisions and interoperable insulin pumps.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a leading cause of disability in the United States. Antidepressants are a cornerstone of treatment, but treatment failure is common. Pharmacogenetics (PGx), or the influence of an individual’s genetics on medication outcomes, is one source of variability in antidepressant treatment. Several PGx variants are known to affect antidepressant pharmacokinetics and clinical outcomes. Recent studies show a modest but significant benefit of PGx testing for MDD. Despite this, PGx testing is rarely used in MDD. This is driven by several factors, including lack of provider confidence in using PGx, perceived lack of access to testing, and perceived high out-of-pocket cost. This knowledge-based activity will increase pharmacist understanding of how PGx affect antidepressants, increase confidence in applying this knowledge to clinical situations, and review real-world logistics of using PGx testing for MDD.

Pharmacy leaders generally rely on what they have learned and experienced “hand-on” about leadership throughout their careers. This often leads to behaviors that make obtaining results and profitability the highest priority which can often lead to increased employee stress and ultimately burnout and turnover. Leaders that prioritize compassionate and caring behaviors have been shown to build trust and influence, ultimately leading to decreased burnout and turnover as well as increased productivity and profitability. The purpose of this knowledge-based activity is to introduce and discuss the reasons why compassionate and caring leadership is essential to effective leadership and to share concepts and behaviors that can help develop individual leadership abilities.

This meeting is for the outgoing and newly elected Grand Officers and PLEI Board only.
