SUMMARY:Drug Interactions\, Radiation Safety and HIPAA Compliance
DESCRIPTION:Register for this Event \n\nThree Serious Drug Interactions PLUS Radiation Safety and HIPAA Compliance \n6 CE credits appropriate for dentists\, hygienists\, assistants and EFDAs.\nEducation Method: PowerPoint\, lecture and discussion \nRadiation Safety – This course meets the training requirements for every dental x-ray operator as outlined in Pennsylvania Code\, Title 25\, Section 221.11.\nHIPAA in the Dental Office – This course covers the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and the requirements that dental offices have under that Act.\nPresented by Autumn Bupp\, manager of the Western PA branch of Clym Environmental Services\, where she oversees the areas of compliance\, medical waste management\, and confidential document destruction. Autumn provides compliance training\, safety audits and compliance consultation services to dental and medical professionals. Ms. Bupp has no relevant financial relationships to disclose. \nThree Serious Drug Interactions – It is important for clinicians to understand the theoretical basis behind these often predictable interactions\, and comprehend the evidence-based science that supports their existence. Serious drug interactions may occur in the dental patient because of drugs the dentist prescribes or administers. The dentist may also experience adverse drug interactions from medications they are taking for various medical conditions. Their associated vasoconstrictors have had a long history of safety and efficacy in dental practice. However\, pediatric dental patients are especially vulnerable to overdose reactions with this group of drugs. The speaker will illustrate how to perform these dosage calculations\, including “The Rule of 25.” A potentially serious drug interaction between epinephrine-containing local anesthetic solutions and non-selective beta-adrenergic blocking agents also will be highlighted. Research evaluating the efficacy and safety of phentolamine mesylate will be discussed along with the limitations of the intranasal tetracaine plus oxymetazoline mist.\nPresented by Elliot V. Hersh\, DMD\, MS\, PhD\, Professor of Pharmacology/Oral Surgery at the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine. He has published more than 175 scientific articles\, abstracts and book chapters in the areas of dental pharmacology\, drug interactions\, analgesics and local anesthetics. Dr. Hersh has no relevant financial relationships to disclose. \nAt the end of the course\, participants will be able to:\n– summarize regulations for x-ray operators.\n– review image recording and processing as well as patient exposures and positioning.\n– explain the responsibilities of covered entities under HIPAA\, including the Privacy Rule and the Security Rule.\n– Identify the common characteristics shared among most drugs involved in the most serious adverse drug interactions.\n– Identify a common food product that greatly increases blood levels of simvastatin and atorvastatin. \n Date:  Wednesday\, December 9\, 2026 \n Time: 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.; Registration opens at 8:30 a.m.\n  Snacks provided; meals are on your own \n Location: Geisinger Medical Center\, Henry Hood Center \n Fees:\n  $145 – PDA/ADA member dentists\n$0 – PDA Retired/Life member dentists\n$245 – Non-member dentists\n$85 – Non-dentist dental team\n \nCE Credits:  6 CE credits for dentists\, hygienists\, assistants and EFDAs \nOnline registration is available to PDA member dentists and non-dentist dental team members. Anyone registering online will need a username and password.
