Purpose: Audio-Digest Foundation CME/CE activities are designed to provide its learners – physicians and other healthcare professionals – with continuing education that will help identify clinical problems in their practice settings, provide content to help to solve those problems, and increase their application of knowledge to practice.
Audio-Digest Neurology is specifically designed to provide the participant with knowledge-based competencies identified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN) in its Neurology core competencies. These competencies include, but are not limited to:
Basic neuroscience that is critical to the practice of neurology
Pathophysiology and treatment of major psychiatric and neurologic disorders and familiarity with the scientific basis of neurology
Neurologic disorders and diseases across the lifespan
Psychiatric disorders and diseases across the lifespan
Patient evaluation and treatment selection
Employment of principles of quality improvement in practice
The goals of this program are to improve recognition and treatment of transient ischemic attacks (TIAs), advance therapies for brain repair after stroke, and identify causes of stroke in young adults. After hearing and assimilating this program, the clinician will be better able to:
1: Determine whether patients experienced a TIA.
2: Prevent patients with a history of TIAs from developing strokes.
3: Recommend agents and treatments shown to improve outcomes after stroke.
4: Describe recent and forthcoming advances related to restoring and repairing brain function after stroke.
5: Identify etiologies often responsible for strokes in younger adults.
