Overview
Pediatric healthcare providers care for children with a variety of common and uncommon neurological conditions. Most of these practitioners have not had extensive training in the diagnosis and management of the neurological disorders of children, so there are knowledge and skills gaps even for common conditions such as headache, weakness and movement disorders, and disorders with onset in infancy. The purpose of this symposium is to enhance the attendees’ knowledge about the pediatric neurological conditions and to provide specific techniques that will improve management of these children. We will provide a series of interactive presentations on various topics. Each presentation will provide information about one or more specific topics, in the process improving the knowledge base of the attendees. In as much as possible, we will incorporate evidence-based recommendations for the diagnosis and management of these disorders.

Objectives
At the conclusion of this activity, learners will be able to:

  1. Physician/Learners will be able to discuss etiology, pathophysiology, assessment, treatment plans and evaluation of infants and children with select neurological conditions.
  2. Nursing/Learners will identify how evidence based communication and interprofessional teams including support groups can improve care of children with neurological disorders.
  3. Interdisciplinary Audience/Learners will identify the role of interdisciplinary care in managing patients with common neurological disorders.
