Continuing Medical Education Pediatric Hypertension: An Update on the American Academy of Pediatrics Clinical Practice Guidelines
Although it is well known that pediatric hypertension (HTN) may lead to early-onset cardiovascular disease, it is often underdiagnosed and treated (Writing Group Members et al., 2016). The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, which tracks information on the health and nutritional status of adults and children, showed elevated blood pressure (BP) and HTN increased from 1988 to 2008 (Rosner et al., 2013). Previous United States (U.S.) guidelines were released in 2004, and updated clinical practice guidelines were issued in 2017 by the American Academy of Pediatrics (Flynn et al., 2017).

Erratum to Continuing Medical Education Pediatric Hypertension: An Update on the American Academy of Pediatrics Clinical Practice Guidelines
The publisher regrets that contact hours cannot be provided for this Continuing Education article. For a few of the questions, the correct answers were provided on the posttest and for one question two answers were the same. The posttest errors should not reflect upon the authors.

Allergic contact dermatitis
is a common diagnosis resulting from exposure to a chemical or chemicals in a patient's personal care products, home, or work environment. Once patch testing has been performed, the education and management process begins. After the causative allergens have been identified, patient education is critical to the proper treatment and management of the patient. This must occur if the dermatitis is to resolve. Detailed education is imperative, and several resources are highlighted.

Rosacea
Although rosacea's impact on physical health is limited, it has profound effects on a person's psychological well-being. Therefore, treating rosacea can greatly affect a person's quality of life. Patient education regarding trigger avoidance and skin care techniques such as moisturizing and sun protection are important non-pharmacologic first steps in treating rosacea. Pharmacologic interventions range from topical to systemic medications, with the ideal medication choice dependent on the symptoms and severity of each individual patient.
