Vestibular Rehabilitation: Advanced - LIVE WEBINAR - Two Sessions (Dec 07 - 08, 2024)
hosted byEducation Resources, Inc. (ERI)Vestibular Rehabilitation: Advanced - LIVE WEBINAR - Two Sessions is organized by Education Resources, Inc. (ERI) and will be held from Dec 07 - 08, 2024.
Course Description:
The course will focus on the assessment and treatment of patients with vertigo and dysequilibrium from unusual vestibular causes. The course is designed for clinicians (PT & OT) with prior vestibular rehabilitation course work and clinical experience. Material covered will include advanced techniques for treating anterior and horizontal canal BPPV, central causes of dizziness (including concussion), identification and treatment of cervicogenic dizziness, persistent postural perceptual dizziness, migraine and other unusual vestibular disorders. As vestibular disorders occur across the lifespan and with various disorders, this information is applicable to a large patient population with symptoms of dizziness.
Learning Objectives:
• Diagnose anterior semicircular canal BPPV, and horizontal semicircular canal BPPV, including BPPV affecting the anterior arm of the horizontal semicircular canal
• Choose the various appropriate treatment techniques for anterior semicircular canal BPPV, and horizontal semicircular canal BPPV, including BPPV affecting the anterior arm of the horizontal semicircular canal
• Identify the causes of cervicogenic dizziness
• Interpret a detailed examination of the patient to differentiate between vestibular and cervicogenic causes of dizziness
• Plan a treatment program for individuals with cervicogenic dizziness, including manual traction techniques for the cervical spine and cervical kinesthetic retraining techniques
• Identify central causes of dizziness, including CVA, brain injury, and concussion
• Develop a treatment program based on the nature of the cause of dizziness for a patient with CVA, brain injury, or concussion
• Modify treatment programs based on the nature of the cause of dizziness for a patient with CVA, brain injury, or concussion
• Evaluate other causes of dizziness such as chronic subjective dizziness or migraine associated dizziness
• Develop a treatment program based on the nature of the cause of dizziness for chronic subjective dizziness or migraine associated dizziness
• Modify a treatment program based on the nature of the cause of dizziness for chronic subjective dizziness or migraine associated dizziness
