Children with immunologic deficiency syndrome (IDS) are born with or develop defects in their immune systems that increase their susceptibility to infections, cancer, and other diseases. This continuing education module is designed to give the reader/learner an increased understanding of IDS in children, including its clinical presentation, symptoms, and treatment, and to aid in caring for the patient with this diagnosis. Readers may explore any or all of the topics. One contact hour of continuing education credit is available for those who successfully complete the post-test and evaluation form.
