Intended Audience
Specialized training for healthcare professionals at all career stages.
Eliminate Guesswork in Complex Neuromuscular Cases
Stop referring out complex cases or second-guessing your electrodiagnostic readings. Over 41 highly focused, 30-to-45-minute lectures, you will master the clinical applications of electrodiagnosis, ultrasound, and the management of acquired and inherited neuromuscular conditions.
What You Will Master Inside
Advanced Needle EMG
Confidently interpret motor unit potential waveforms and interference patterns. Understand exactly how disease processes alter motor unit architecture in real-time.
Systemic Neuropathies
Rapidly narrow down causes of neuropathy linked to metabolic, nutritional, inflammatory, and neoplastic origins by expertly characterizing phenotypes.
Muscle Channelopathies
Master the identification of myotonic disorders. Know exactly when to deploy genetic testing for patients presenting with chronic muscle stiffness and pain.
Learning Objectives
After participating in this activity, clinicians should be able to:
List the methods of rehabilitation management of neuromuscular disease
Recognize the common neuromuscular mimics of the upper extremity
Identify the signs of neuropathies found on physical examination
List the substances that can cause toxic polyneuropathies
Compare the two groups of disorders found in muscle channelopathies
Describe the classic presentation of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Explain how to tailor the treatment of myasthenia gravis to disease severity and individual patient
Discuss how to evaluate a patient with generalized weakness
Outline the role of electromyography in focal mononeuropathies of the leg
Name the common inherited and acquired causes of rhabdomyolysis
