ABOUT THE COURSE
Welcome to the 15th Annual Cleveland Clinic Neurology Update. On behalf of the Neurological Institute at the Cleveland Clinic we would like to welcome you to our annual course and hope you find it valuable in your continuing care of patients with neurological disease. We are excited to bring you our third hybrid meeting that is a clinically focused review course with updated information on a broad range of neurological conditions. We have incorporated smaller group breakout sessions for a more connected interaction and experience. The case-based breakouts will focus on dementia, headache, Parkinson’s disease/movement disorders, EMG, EEG and atypical movement disorders. All course participants will have a chance to attend each session.
This year we will address polyneuropathy, pain management, ALS, psychiatry and the importance of advanced practice providers (APP) as inpatient neurology consultants. We will continue to include presentations on stroke updates, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis and neuroradiology (brain and spine). Our interactive course will allow time for Q&A after each lecture and we will encourage active participation using the audience response/polling system to incorporate a self-assessment where you will see how your answer choices compare to your peers.
