- Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder 5 2
Course release date: 10/1/2024
Course Overview
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a debilitating psychiatric illness affecting approximately 4% to 12% of the population. Characterized by persistent problems with distractibility, impulsivity, and/or hyperactivity, ADHD has a significant effect on day-to-day functioning and quality of life. Unfortunately, ADHD often goes unrecognized. Patients may hesitate to disclose their symptoms, and physicians unfamiliar with this disorder may confuse its manifestations with other psychiatric illnesses. Common comorbidities can further cloud the diagnosis. This course will cover the epidemiology, diagnostic criteria, pathophysiology, and differential diagnosis of ADHD. It will review the first-line treatments, recommended duration of therapy, and options for patients who do not respond to initial therapy. Finally, it will address the roles of other therapeutic options, such as behavioral therapy. - Dizziness and Vertigo 10 5
Course release date: 10/1/2024
Course Overview
Dizziness is a nonspecific term used by patients to describe symptoms related to vestibular dysfunction, presyncope, disequilibrium, psychiatric disorders, and other etiologies. A primary complaint of dizziness accounts for 5.6 million clinic visits annually in the United States. Accurate diagnosis and effective treatment of dizziness is very important. Dizziness and vertigo in the elderly elevates risks for falls, the leading cause of disability and death from injury in this population. However, considerable practice variations exist in the management of dizziness and vertigo. This variance between guideline recommendations and clinical practice suggests an important role for educational intervention.
