This educational activity is intended for an international audience of pediatricians, primary care physicians and orthopedists and orthopedic surgeons.

The goal of this activity is for the learner to be better able to better identify clinical manifestations of inborn errors of metabolism, with a particular focus on mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) IVA and IV and recognize the importance of implementing early treatment in terms of patient outcomes.

Upon completion of this activity, participants will:

  • Have increased knowledge regarding the
    • Identification of clinical manifestations regarding the diffuse compromise of skeletal and nonskeletal structures
  • Have greater competence related to
    • Making a diagnosis early in the life of the patient to design the best treatment approach
