Presenter: Samuel N. Bittel, AuD
CEUs: 0.1 AAA/Tier 1
Duration: 60 minutes
Instructional Level: Intermediate
Program Focus: Knowledge
Description:
Migraine is a common and complex neurological disorder that includes a number of audiovestibular issues including tinnitus, hearing loss, and vertigo. Audiologists will encounter migraine in clinic, so they should be well-versed in understanding this condition and its management.
Although information related to migraine is often included in the audiological literature, this information is often incomplete, and/or fails to truly describe the connection (or lack thereof) between migraine and ear pathology. This webinar will bridge the gap between the current understandings of migraine and what might be encountered by an audiologist in practice.
We will provide a detailed description of migraine, including epidemiology, the underlying mechanisms and physiology of migraine, medical and non-medical management strategies, the connection between migraine and peripheral ear disorders, misconceptions and misinformation in the audiology literature, pediatric migraine, and case studies.
Participants will gain relevant information that will be immediately applicable in the audiology clinic.
