Sumario:INTRODUCTION: We sought to determine if a series of online continuing medical education (CME) activities could improve knowledge, competence and confidence of primary care physicians (PCPs) and endocrinologists (endos) related to guideline-based diagnosis and management of patients with acromegaly. METHODS: The effect of two (2) separate online, 30-minute, CME-certified roundtable discussions among 3 faculty were analyzed to determine efficacy. The activities posted December 16, 2020, and May 19, 2021, and data were collected for 3 months for each activity. RESULTS: Overall, 42% and 30% of PCP learners and 20% and 43% of endo learners improved their knowledge/competence. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates the success of 2 online, 30-minute roundtable discussions on improving knowledge, competence, and confidence of both PCPs, and endocrinologists regarding guideline-based diagnosis and management of acromegaly, with gaps identified for future education.
