Management of Acne in Teens
Dr Jo-Ann See

If a teenager presents to their GP for treatment of their acne, it's a bonus. So many turn to the internet, the beautician, their friends or Tik Tok for advice. For GPs, it is an opportunity to discover the young person's understanding and misunderstanding of the condition and its treatment and gauge the level of distress it is causing them. In this talk, Dr JoAnn See highlights common misconceptions teenagers have about acne, and the myriad of treatment regimens that are being recommended on social media. Importantly, she'll also outline a practical, stepwise management plan and include advice on how to engage these young patients and get them invested in the evidence-based management of this condition not only physically but mentally as well.

An Update on Heart Failure in General Practice
Dr Robert Hungerford

Heart failure is an increasingly common condition and one which GPs will, increasingly, be expected to manage in the primary care setting. In this talk, Dr Robert Hungerford will describe when heart failure should be suspected, how it can be assessed and diagnosed, and the practicalities of initiating and intensifying treatment in keeping with the latest evidence-based, best practice guidelines. In addition, Dr Hungerford will describe how these patients should be monitored and managed long-term and when they need to be referred on, all with the aim of improving not only mortality but also their quality of life.

Scoliosis in Children: Preventing Surgery
Dr Michael Selby

Diagnosing scoliosis early can mean the difference between a young person requiring spinal surgery and not. So says, orthopaedic surgeon, Dr Mike Selby who, in this presentation, will discuss the fundamentals of recognising developing scoliosis, making the diagnosis, the red flags suggesting a more sinister pathology and the latest evidence-based assessments and treatments for this not uncommon condition. In addition, he will highlight the importance of opportunistic screening and appropriate investigation for scoliosis in general practice, given the cessation of school-based screening programs.

Innovations in Breast Radiation
A/Prof Yvonne Zissiadis

Significant advances have been made in radiation therapy for breast cancer over recent decades. In this talk, radiation oncologist, Associate Professor Yvonne Zissiadis will discuss the pivotal role radiation therapy plays in the management and treatment of breast cancer, as well as providing a refresher on how and why the treatment works. Importantly, she will also give an update on current radiation therapy regimens and the potential side effects of this treatment. In addition, she will present the latest learnings from breast cancer research, including the increasing recognition of the value of exercise as part of effective breast cancer management.
