Epilepsy is one of the most common, chronic neurological condition in the UK. The course will offer a practical grounding in the most common comorbidities associated with epilepsy. This is an area of growing clinical interest, and relevant to the care of patients with epilepsy.
The course aims to provide a basic grounding in the epidemiology, nature, diagnosis and treatment of common comorbidities in patients with epilepsy. The organisers have worked to develop a varied program that changes year to year, ensuring a range of relevant and new topics are covered each year. This year will include topics about the heart and epilepsy, epilepsy and sleep, depression, to name a few.
This course is best suited to those health postgraduates, and health professionals who come into contact with patients with epilepsy, including general neurologists, epileptologists,
specialist nurses, neurology residents or those aspiring to train in neurology, psychologists, and psychiatrists.
Delegates will be issued with a certificate of attendance and CPD will be sought from the Federation of the Royal Colleges of Physicians of the United Kingdom.
