Physician’s Weekly offers several continuing medical education (CME) activities on its website at http://www.physiciansweekly.com/cme-corner. The latest course, “CME: E-Cigarettes and Cough Reflex Sensitivity,” tackles the recent vaping craze.

With information presented by Peter V. Dicpinigaitis, M.D., professor of clinical medicine at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, this course discusses the effects of a single exposure to e-cigarette vapor on cough reflex sensitivity.

To obtain CME, participants must review the course, correctly answer two out of three questions on the post test, and complete and submit an activity evaluation.
