Learning Objectives:
Primary CNS, Diffuse B-cell Lymphoma
Jessica V. Amos, M.D.
- Recognize MRI images consistent with Primary Central Nervous System (CNS) Lymphoma.
- Describe appropriate work-up when Primary CNS Lymphoma is suspected.
Prescribing Patterns for Seizure Rescue Medications
Philion L. Hoff, M.D.
- Identify attitudes regarding prescription of seizure rescue medication.
- Describe factors which may influence prescribing patterns of seizure rescue medication.
Feeding Transitions in Post-Stroke Dysphagia: Balancing Aspiration Risk in ICU and Ward Protocols
Erin Grey, M.D.
- Compare different methods of tube feeding.
- List factors contributing to aspiration in stroke patients.
Substance Use as a Risk Factor for MS
Zainab Al Obaidi, M.D.
- Review the prevalence of overall substance use disorder before onset of symptoms in patients diagnosed with MS and matched controls without MS based on age, gender, and race.
- Compare the prevalence of overall substance use disorder between those diagnosed with MS and matched controls without MS.
Evaluating the Effectiveness of a Standardized EMG/NCS Curriculum in improving the proficiency of EMG/NCS Interpretation by Neurology Residents
Toluwanimi A. Shaanu, M.D.
- Generate a standardized EMG curriculum for Neurology residents during their EMG/NCS rotation, with the goal of enhancing consistency, depth, and clarity in EMG education.
- Identify a novel educational intervention by incorporating an independent review of a curated list of educational EMG/NCS studies. Neurology residents will complete this self-guided review alongside traditional, faculty-led instruction, creating a blended learning model.
