Colleen began her journey into the specialized care of vestibular rehabilitation patients after evaluating a patient that she felt ill equipped to help. She needed to know more. It is straightforward to recognize and treat the disease.

For patients who have multiple conditions impacting their overall presentation, the care becomes much more complex. Understanding how the systems function as a whole requires advanced learning. The course was developed with these patients in mind.

The recording begins with assessment and treatment techniques, including a lab component to practice technique, hand positioning, and patient-specific modifications. You will be able to better recognize presentations that don’t fit the pattern. Functional assessments and treatment progressions will be used to further assess and treat the non-BPPV diagnoses.

The course will give participants a deeper understanding of assessment, treatment techniques, patient-specific modifications, and differential diagnosis skills for the dizzy patient. When you can identify the areas where therapy can intervene to promote the desired functional gains for patients, you can take your skills to a new level.

1. Perform assessment techniques for vestibular patients with proper technique and appropriate patient-specific modifications.
2. Analyze findings of a vestibular assessment to determine a therapy diagnosis.
3. Recognize key subjective reports to further enhance evaluation and differential diagnosis skills.
4. Evaluate findings that assist in differentiation of central, peripheral and cervicogenic dizziness.
5. Formulate a plan of care based on findings from assessments to improve functional outcomes.
6. Select proper treatment techniques from evidence-based guidelines for vestibular rehabilitation.
7. Evaluate prognosis based on accurate diagnostic procedures.
8. Develop appropriate goals for patients considering complete medical history and presenting factors that may modify rehab outcomes.

ASSESSMENT TECHNIQUES FOR DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS

• Position modifications for patients with mobility limitations or in environments with limited space such as home health or acute care
• Clinical decision-making large group activity to apply assessment techniques and interpret findings
• Recognize assessment findings that indicate central, peripheral, and cervicogenic dizziness diagnoses
• Determine a therapy diagnosis based on patient history, onset, symptoms and assessment

There are medical jargons and prostaglandins.

• Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo
• Vestibular neuronitis, labyrinitis
• Meniere’s disease, endolymphatic hydrops, acoustic neuroma
• Central vertigo: CVA, multiple sclerosis, migraine-associated
• Cervicogenic vertigo
• Post-concussion syndrome
• Sensory integration/Multi-factorial balance dysfunction

EXAM LAB

• Clearing cervical spine: mVAT, Sharp-Purser test
• Occulomotor exam: Smooth pursuit, Saccades, Vergence and visual acuity
• Vestibular exam: Head thrust, Head-Shaking Nystagmus, Hallpike-Dix, Roll Test
• Assessing nystagmus: Horizontal, vertical, torsional
• Motion sensitivity quotient
• Balance assessment: mCTSIB, Dynamic Gait Index, Gait

It is possible to develop a patient-specific treatment plan.

• Canalith repositioning maneuvers: Epley maneuver, BBQ roll / quick BBQ roll, Cassani, Appiani, Brandt-Daroff Exercises
• Gaze stabilization: Basic and advancements
• Balance progression
• Sensory integration in balance Evidence-based Functional Assessment Tools
• Vestibular EDGE recommendations from the Academy of Neurologic Physical Therapy
• Direct each of the 4 areas of treatment for vestibular rehabilitation
