STIs – Common and Tricky Cases
Prof Jason Ong

After a lull over the COVID era, sexually transmitted infections are again on the rise. In this talk, Professor Jason Ong will present, through a series of case studies, what is happening in Australia in terms of STIs - which infections are prevalent, how do they present and who is most at risk. Importantly, Professor Ong will also discuss the latest Australian guideline recommendations on the detection, diagnosis and treatment of patients with an STI in primary care so cases can be identified earlier and the spread of these diseases contained.

Role of Testosterone During Menopause – Evidence vs Hype
Dr Terri Foran

Despite decades of research, misconceptions remain regarding testosterone's role in menopausal hormone therapy. This is particularly the case on many social media platforms, where dubious claims are made that testosterone can significantly improve energy levels, cognition and mood at perimenopause and menopause. This has led to a challenging of traditional medical paradigms and a community-led demand for testosterone therapy beyond its current accepted indications. It is important that clinicians balance this grassroots momentum with an evidence-based to patient care. In this presentation Dr Terri Foran will discuss the evidence on testosterone therapy and outline an approach to patient selection, optimal dosing, monitoring therapy and guiding treatment expectations.

RSV Prevention in Infants and Pregnant Women
A/Prof Daryl Cheng

RSV is one of the leading causes of hospital admissions for infants under 12 months here in Australia. However, as of February this year, a fully-funded immunisation program involving both mothers and infants is set to dramatically change this statistic. In this presentation, Dr Daryl Cheng will outline the details of the new program - the RSV vaccine offered to pregnant women as well as the monoclonal antibody offered to at-risk infants. Dr Cheng will focus on who can get what and when, and provide evidence of the safety and effectiveness of these anti-RSV products.

Vision and Driving Fitness: Key Insights for Health Practitioners
Dr Fiona Chan

Vision is critical for safe driving. In this talk, Dr Fiona Chan will detail how health practitioners can assess and advise drivers on their visual competency to drive based on Australian guidelines. The talk will include the specific Australian regulatory driving criteria, including aspects of visual acuity, visual fields and double vision. Dr Chan will also advise practitioners on when and how to refer patients to relevant authorities.
