Program Description

This series will enhance learners’ understanding and application of clinical neurophysiology (CNP) in the diagnosis and management of movement disorders. Through five focused lectures, participants will explore the foundational principles and practical utility of CNP in differentiating and evaluating various hyperkinetic and hypokinetic movement disorders.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this activity, learners will be able to:
1. Describe the fundamental principles of clinical neurophysiology as applied to tremor, myoclonus, and other movement disorders.
2. Differentiate among various tremor syndromes, jerky movements, and dystonia using key clinical and neurophysiological features.
3. Interpret electrophysiological data (e.g., EMG, accelerometry, EEG) to support the diagnosis and classification of complex movement disorders.
4. Identify the specific role of clinical neurophysiology in distinguishing Parkinson’s disease from atypical or functional parkinsonism.
5. Integrate clinical neurophysiology findings into comprehensive patient assessments to inform diagnosis and guide treatment strategies.
