Please visit answersincme.com/RND860 to participate, download slides and supporting materials, complete the post test, and get a certificate. In this activity, experts in hypophosphatasia (HPP) discuss its multisystem burden and diagnostic challenges, and the importance of early referral for timely treatment. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Describe the clinical burden and multisystem manifestations of HPP across the lifespan; Recognize key diagnostic challenges in HPP through practical screening strategies, including interpretation of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP) levels; and Outline the importance of early referral and diagnostic confirmation to enable timely treatment initiation, including the role of genetic testing and family screening.
