Parkinson's Disease and the Parkinsonisms: The Advanced Course (Recorded Webinar)

Course overview

This course is a recording of a previously hosted live webinar event. Polling and question submission features are not available for this recording. Format and structure may differ from standard MedBridge courses. 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 a PT or an OT, you will learn the basics of differentiation, treatment, and treatment timing, as well as what to expect based on the evidence presented in this course.
