Rocky Mountain spotted fever (RMSF) is a bacterial disease spread through the bite of an infected tick. Signs and symptoms of RMSF can be difficult to differentiate from other disease, but early recognition and treatment are key to prevent severe and fatal outcomes.
CDC has created a new RMSF module to help clinicians recognize and diagnose RMSF. The module includes:
- Knowledge checks
- Case-based scenarios
- Rash comparison tool
Free continuing education credit is available for physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, veterinarians, nurses, epidemiologists, public health professionals, educators, and health communicators
