This comprehensive review will help you pass your Neurology board exams and update your clinical knowledge base. Emphasis is on evidence-based medicine and board-relevant standards of care, incorporating new concepts and treatments. The course includes lectures that review the entire field of Neurology. As a result, it provides a good review for the ABPN written exams or physicians in practice wanting a thorough update. In addition, the course includes didactic lectures, a discussion of clinical vignettes, and embedded questions for discussion at the end of each topic.
Objectives
At the conclusion of this course, each participant should be able to:
- Identify and discuss clinically relevant aspects of neurochemistry, neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and neuropharmacology
- Interpret neuroimaging studies
- Recognize and describe all significant neurological disorders and significant variants
- Discuss developmental disorders and scientific underpinnings
- Distinguish abnormal behavioral and personality changes
- Describe the use of appropriate psychopharmacology agents for all significant neurologic disorders and significant interactions
- Identify and plan treatment for alcoholism and substance abuse
- Identify and distinguish between altered states of consciousness and memory disorders
- Implement appropriate primary and secondary stroke prevention strategies
