Wrapping your head around Neurological Emergencies

This webinar aims to act as a refresher on major neurological emergencies, focusing on seizures and status epilepticus, CNS/head trauma, and paresis and paralysis. We will briefly review pathophysiology, then concentrate on practical tips and steps to work through when faced with these situations, and finally touch on the complications we need to be aware of. We will also cover some short case studies if time allows.
