Title:  Who’s in CHARGE – CHARGE Syndrome Through the Eyes of a General Pediatrician
Learning Objectives:  
1. Develop a deeper understanding of the intricate medical challenges in CHARGE syndrome and how they can relate to your complex patients.
2. You’ll gain insight into the anesthesia challenges and gastrointestinal motility issues commonly seen in CHARGE Syndrome, which also resonates with many of the complex individuals we encounter in pediatrics.
3. I will introduce you to Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and discuss the life-changing effects of a vagal nerve implant in a young CHARGE adult, emphasizing the crucial role of listening to families in shaping care.
4. Lear about valuable resources, including the CHARGE syndrome checklist, website, and pamphlets that have supported knowledge translation; alongside contributions from families who have shaped my research.
