This activity for healthcare professionals aims to enhance clinicians’ competence in diagnosing and managing acute mastitis. Lactational and non-lactational mastitis, including periductal mastitis and idiopathic granulomatous mastitis, are discussed. The activity will cover etiology, pathophysiology, epidemiology, histopathology, evaluation, treatment, and complications of mastitis. Clinicians will learn to differentiate mastitis from other breast conditions and apply evidence-based guidelines for appropriate management. The activity will emphasize the importance of continuing breastfeeding during mastitis, early recognition of abscess formation, and educating patients on preventive measures to reduce mastitis incidence. An interprofessional approach will be highlighted to improve healthcare outcomes.
