Handouts:

The AACPDM will not be providing paper handouts for presenters. The deadline to submit handouts is October 6, 2025.

The files for your handout should not be the same as your presentation. Please ensure your handouts are clear and legible before uploading them. No more than two files should be uploaded. Please keep the total of the file size(s) less than 1.5MB. All materials must be in PDF format. Please include your session number and last name in your file name (PC1_Jones).

Please Note: After October 6, 2024, handout materials may not be included in the mobile app. If you miss the deadline, you may bring your own paper handouts to distribute onsite, as attendees will be expecting additional information. However, it will be your responsibility to make your own copies. In addition, expenses for shipping or photocopying materials for distribution in New Orleans will not be reimbursed.

Ensure that you have the necessary permissions and documentation (if needed) to utilize patient videos in your presentation. Due to privacy regulations, you are required to have faces blurred or not visible.
