Hypereosinophilic Syndrome (HES) is a rare and complex group of disorders posing diagnostic challenges for clinicians. Characterized by significant increases in eosinophil levels, HES can lead to tissue infiltration and damage. This course is designed to equip clinicians with a comprehensive understanding of the epidemiology, evaluation, and management of HES, offering valuable insights to enhance patient care.Throughout the course, participants will explore the diagnostic criteria for HES, emphasizing the importance of eosinophil counts, evidence of organ or tissue damage, and the exclusion of alternative causes. Delving into the prevalence rates and demographic patterns, learners will focus on the age group most commonly affected and the prevalence rate ranging from 0.36 to 6.3 per 100,000. Moreover, the course will provide a nuanced classification of HES variants based on the affected organ and initial patient evaluation.This interprofessional learning experience encourages collaboration among team members, fostering a holistic approach to HES. Participants will gain the expertise required to enhance patient outcomes by exploring the intricacies of epidemiology and diagnosis.
