* Available Feb 5

Description

Parkinson's disease is not the same as Parkinsonism, from the cellular mechanism and pathophysiology to the presentation, prognosis, and treatment. This course will clarify the main clinical subtypes of Parkinsonisms, including vascular and inherited, as well as multiple systems atrophies, corticobasal

ganglionic degeneration (CBGD), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and a differential with Huntington’s disease. Viewers should expect comprehensive coverage of these topics.

If you are PT or OT, you will learn the basics of differentiation, treatment, and treatment timing, as well as what to expect based on today’s evidence.
