Host: Audiology Solutions Network
By: Jamie Bogle

Who Should Attend: Audiologists involved in the care of pediatric and adult patients with concussion.

Level: Intermediate

Program Focus: Knowledge

Learner Outcomes:

Upon completion, each participant in the eAudiology Web seminar will be able to:

  1. Discuss the various vestibular diagnostic evaluations available for concussion testing
  2. Identify key areas of dysfunction for patients post-concussion
  3. Explain how protocols may be adjusted for pediatric assessment

Description:
Vestibular/Balance Dysfunction in Sports-Related Concussion - this eAudiology Web Seminar will review current theoretical explanations for the dizziness and imbalance often reported following sports-related concussion. Unfortunately, vestibular diagnostic results are highly variable in this population, which leads to difficulties in patient management. This presentation will discuss the theories available to explain this variability and what we can do to standardize a minimum test battery for concussion. Variations between pediatric and adult protocols will be emphasized. Case examples will highlight the patterns of vestibular and balance dysfunction often noted in patients following concussion.
