ACCP Pulmonary Board Review 2008
CME Information
ACCP Education Mission
To develop educational delivery systems for chest, critical
care, and sleep physicians that facilitate lifelong learning
and optimize clinical care through the following:
ACCP Education Committee Goals
- Identify topics where an educational need indicates
that the diagnosis and management of chest disease,
pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine could be
signiicantly improved by providing new information.
Dissemination of this information would have a high
global health and economic impact. The information
would ideally be based upon a body of published evidence
or evidence-based guidelines.
- Promote lifelong learning through the use of the
American College of Chest Physicians’ education
curriculum that relects clinicians’ time, iscal practicality,
incorporation of evidence-based guidelines, and the use
of current technology.
- Work with other organizations to develop, sponsor, and/
or disseminate continuing medical education programs
or enduring products.
- Implement continuing medical educational delivery
systems that meet or exceed the current guidelines of
the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical
Education (ACCME).
- Assess the educational significance and impact on
learners who have participated in the American College
of Chest Physicians’ education curriculum.
ACCP Learning Categories
ACCP Learning Categories organize
education activities based on how
education is delivered to promote a
wider variety of methodologies. The
sessions presented during this course
are labeled to identify the type of
instruction and methodology used,
so you can determine how the
presentation will meet your learning
style and educational goals. ACCP Learning Categories have no predetermined
requirements. Your online
CME certiicate will relect your ACCP
Learning Categories. The ACCP Learning
Categories are:
ACCP Learning Category I: Lecture-Based
ACCP Learning Category II: Self-Directed
ACCP Learning Category III: Evidence-Based
ACCP Learning Category IV: Case- and Problem-Based
ACCP Learning Category V: Simulation
ACCP Learning Category VI: Quality Improvement
Maintenance of Licensure
The ACCP Learning Categories are
further subcategorized into Maintenance
of Licensure (MOL) areas. The subcategorization
is very helpful for applying CME
to state requirements. All of the sessions
in this program are subcategorized as
MOL: Scope of Practice-Pulmonary Medical
Education.

Disclosure Statement
The American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) remains
strongly committed to providing the best available
evidence-based clinical information to participants of this
educational activity and requires an open disclosure of
any potential conlict of interest identiied by our faculty
members. It is not the intent of the ACCP to eliminate all
situations of potential conlict of interest, but rather to
enable those who are working with the ACCP to recognize
situations that may be subject to question by others.
All disclosed conlicts of interest are reviewed by the
educational activity course director/chair, the Education
Committee, or the Conlict of Interest Review Committee
to ensure that such situations are properly evaluated and,
if necessary, resolved. The ACCP educational standards
pertaining to conlict of interest are intended to maintain
the professional autonomy of the clinical experts inherent
in promoting a balanced presentation of science. Through
our review process, all ACCP CME activities are ensured
of independent, objective, scientiically balanced
presentations of information. Disclosure of any or no
relationships will be made available for all educational
activities.
