Target Audience Neurophysiologists, Neurodiagnostic Technologists, Neurologists, Surgeons, Anesthesiologists, Nurses, Audiologists and other medical practitioners holding credentials such as R.EEG.T, CLTM, R.EP.T, CNIM, BCS-IOM and D.ABNM, and involved in neurodiagnostics in the epilepsy and surgical monitoring environments..
Course Description This symposium provides an important update for epilepsy diagnostic care professionals, as well as advanced practitioners who are involved in intraoperative neuromonitoring. Experts in neurology and intraoperative neuromonitoring will introduce methodological advances and discuss important topics, including:
Course I-IOM: Diagnostic accuracy and therapeutic value of neuromonitoring in spine surgery Perspectives and techniques on neuromonitoring in functional neurosurgery Advances in technology and the impact on the future of the profession Reviews of basic and advanced concepts in neurophysiology.
Course II-cEEG & Epilepsy Long Term Monitoring Updates Trending tools and advantages in bedside cEEG Analysis of EEG Seizure Recognition in the ICU Didactic sessions and interactive panel debates will focus on pre-existing conditions, data review, pharmacology, complications and troubleshooting.
Conference Objectives Upon completion of this conference, participants should be better able to: Understand data analysis and interact with ancillary care professionals Effectively apply care techniques to enhance patient care. Formulate appropriate plan of action when presented with challenging data results SIGN ME UP: https://www.signmeup.com/122327
