At the conclusion of this activity learners should be able to…

1. Analyze clinical case scenarios involving airway pathology to determine appropriate diagnostic pathways and collaborative management strategies among ENT, pulmonology, radiology, and speech-language pathology. Demonstrate the ability to integrate findings from endoscopy, imaging, and clinical assessment to formulate interdisciplinary treatment plans for complex airway disorders.
2.  Evaluate acute airway obstruction cases—including hereditary angioedema (HAE) and anaphylaxis—through interdisciplinary case discussion to identify appropriate diagnostic and emergent management strategies. Formulate coordinated treatment plans that integrate emergency medicine, allergy/immunology, ENT, and critical care perspectives in the management of complex airway emergencies.
3. Interpret complex clinical cases involving overlapping airway and esophageal disorders to differentiate among etiologies such as laryngopharyngeal reflux, eosinophilic esophagitis, and aspiration. Develop integrated, interdisciplinary care plans that involve ENT, gastroenterology, pulmonology, and allergy/immunology to manage patients with combined aerodigestive tract disorders
4. Analyze clinical cases of chronic cough to identify underlying etiologies such as upper airway cough syndrome, asthma, GERD, or eosinophilic bronchitis, and determine the appropriate diagnostic approach.
Discuss interdisciplinary management strategies involving ENT, pulmonology, gastroenterology, and primary care to effectively evaluate and treat patients with refractory or multifactorial chronic cough.
5. Interpret complex case presentations involving GERD, laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), and eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) to distinguish overlapping symptoms and guide targeted diagnostic evaluation.  Develop interdisciplinary treatment plans incorporating gastroenterology, otolaryngology, allergy/immunology, and speech-language pathology to optimize outcomes in patients with upper aerodigestive tract inflammation.
6. Analyze common and rare causes of rhinorrhea—such as allergic rhinitis, non-allergic rhinitis, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak—through case-based clinical reasoning and diagnostic interpretation.
Formulate interdisciplinary management strategies involving otolaryngology, allergy/immunology, neurosurgery, and radiology to accurately diagnose and treat patients presenting with persistent or atypical nasal drainage.
7.  Learn key head and neck imaging findings relevant to allergy and immunology practice—such as sinusitis, nasal polyps, and airway anomalies—through case-based analysis to improve diagnostic accuracy.
Collaborate effectively with radiology, otolaryngology, and pulmonology in the interdisciplinary evaluation and management of complex upper airway and sinonasal conditions using imaging as a shared decision-making tool.
8.  Understanding the relationship between dental health and sinusitis: Explain how dental issues such as infections, abscesses, or tooth decay can contribute to sinusitis.
9.  Discuss overlapping clinical presentations of facial pain, earache, and temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJD) through case-based discussion to distinguish between ENT, allergic, neurologic, and musculoskeletal causes. Coordinate interdisciplinary evaluation and management strategies involving ENT, allergy/immunology, neurology, dentistry, and pain specialists to optimize outcomes for patients with complex head and neck pain.
10. Analyze clinical cases of pediatric sinusitis and allergic rhinitis to differentiate between viral, bacterial, and allergic etiologies, and develop a targeted, interdisciplinary management plan involving ENT, allergy/immunology, and primary care providers. Implement evidence-based strategies for the diagnosis and management of pediatric sinusitis and allergies, integrating input from pediatricians, allergists, otolaryngologists, and respiratory therapists to optimize patient outcomes.
11. Review complex case scenarios of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and allergic rhinitis to identify the underlying pathophysiology and guide the development of an interdisciplinary treatment plan involving ENT and allergy/immunology.  Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to formulate evidence-based diagnostic and management strategies for CRS and allergies, ensuring a comprehensive approach to symptom control, prevention of exacerbations, and long-term management.
12.  Review clinical cases to identify appropriate indications for biologic therapy in conditions like asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis, or severe allergies, incorporating an interdisciplinary approach with input from allergists, pulmonologists, and immunologists. Develop an individualized treatment plan for biologic therapy, considering factors such as patient history, comorbidities, and response to previous treatments, while collaborating with relevant specialists to optimize outcomes.
13.  Discuss complex cases of food allergy and eosinophilic esophagitis to determine when biologic therapy is appropriate, incorporating diagnostic findings and input from allergy/immunology, gastroenterology, and nutrition specialists.  Review interdisciplinary management plans that integrate biologic treatments with dietary strategies and long-term monitoring, ensuring coordinated care among allergists, gastroenterologists, and dietitians to optimize patient outcomes.
14.  Identify clinical features and diagnostic clues of rhinitis medicamentosa through case-based discussion, and differentiate it from other causes of chronic nasal congestion in collaboration with allergy/immunology and ENT specialists.  Discuss interdisciplinary treatment strategies for rhinitis medicamentosa, including medication weaning protocols, use of adjunct therapies, and coordinated patient education to prevent recurrence.
15.  Learn complex, multisystem clinical presentations to recognize when mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) should be considered, incorporating case-based reasoning and collaboration with allergy/immunology, hematology, and other relevant specialties.  Review an interdisciplinary diagnostic and management approach for suspected MCAS, including appropriate use of laboratory testing, symptom tracking, and therapeutic trials across specialties.
16.  Review case-based scenarios of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps to determine the optimal timing of biologic therapy in relation to endoscopic sinus surgery, integrating input from ENT, allergy/immunology, and pulmonology.  Discuss individualized, interdisciplinary treatment strategies that balance surgical intervention and biologic therapy to improve symptom control, reduce polyp recurrence, and enhance patient outcomes.
17.  Evaluate patients presenting with postnasal drip symptoms through case-based discussion to differentiate among allergic rhinitis, chronic sinusitis, laryngopharyngeal reflux, and other etiologies, incorporating input from ENT, allergy/immunology, and gastroenterology. Review comprehensive, interdisciplinary management plans tailored to the underlying cause of postnasal drip, emphasizing coordinated care, patient education, and evidence-based treatment strategies.
18.  Review leading ambient AI technologies used in clinical practice by evaluating case-based scenarios that highlight differences in accuracy, workflow integration, and interdisciplinary communication.  Assess the impact of ambient AI on interdisciplinary care teams, focusing on how these tools influence documentation efficiency, clinical decision-making, and patient-provider interactions across specialties.
