The Pfizer is pleased to invite proposals to support educational programs on post COVID conditions, also known as Long COVID or PASC.
These programs aim to equip primary care providers and infectious disease specialists with the necessary knowledge and skills to identify, diagnose, and manage post-COVID conditions effectively. Programs addressing health disparities in the care of marginalized and underserved communities will be of particular interest.
Areas of Interest
- Program objectives may include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Explain recognition, testing, and assessment of post-COVID conditions, identify potential causes, and enhance understanding of various clinical presentations and potential complications.
- Outline the management of post-COVID conditions, including symptom management, referral pathways, pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments, ongoing monitoring and follow-up of patients.
- Describe strategies to address health disparities such as culturally responsive care, health literacy, community resources, and advocacy for equitable access to care for all patients with post-COVID conditions.
- Summarize the latest updates in the ongoing research related to the potential causes, preventative measures, assessment, testing, and management of post-COVID conditions.
