Neurology in first opinion practice: what to do when you can't refer

A case based video tour looking at some common neurological cases you might encounter in practice and how best to deal with them. During this we will neuroanatomically localise, create a list of differential diagnoses and discuss diagnostic and treatment options. We will discuss what can be done if referral isn’t an option and what to expect prognostically. 

• Practice your neurological exam and ability to localise with case videos
• Learn to assess and manage neurological cases in general practice.
• Create succinct and accurate neurological differential diagnoses
• Learn about different diagnostic and treatment options in both the first opinion and referral hospital setting
• Discover about a range of neurological emergencies and the prognosis expected for each
