2012 Neurophysiologic Intraoperative Monitoring

and ICU EEG Monitoring Courses

Saturday, September 29 & Sunday, September 30, 2012

Hyatt Regency Minneapolis, Minneapolis, MN

Accreditation: The American Clinical Neurophysiology Society (ACNS) is

accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to

provide continuing medical education for physicians.

Target Audience: Clinical neurophysiologists, neurologists, physiatrists,

neurosurgeons, technologists, trainees in these disciplines and other physicians

and researchers who utilize clinical neurophysiological techniques and knowledge

in their practice.

NIOM Course Objectives: At the conclusion of this session, participants will be

able to: (1) recognize common indications for performing various types of

NIOM, (2) improve their interpretation skills, (3) learn about typical changes that

can occur during NIOM through case based presentations, (4) appreciate the

technical challenges associated with NIOM, (5) understand the contemporary

issues relevant to NIOM including legal, practice, and equipment issues.

The American Clinical Neurophysiology Society designates this live activity for a

maximum of 15.25 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only

the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

ICU EEG Course Objectives: At the conclusion of this session, participants

will be able to: (1) recognize common indications for CEEG in the ICU setting,

(2) interpret EEG patterns encountered in the ICU, including seizures and

periodic patterns, (3) utilize quantitative EEG methods for data reduction and

real-time detection of EEG changes in the ICU, (4) select appropriate equipment

for ICU-EEG monitoring, including networking and data storage options, and (5)

determine optimal staffing, data review, and reporting of results.

The American Clinical Neurophysiology Society designates this live activity for a

maximum of 13.75 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only

the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

Professional Practice Gaps: Under the system of accreditation designed by the

Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the purpose

of CME is to improve physician competence, physician performance, or patient

outcomes. This is accomplished by identifying gaps in physicians’ competence,

skills, or performance, and offering medical education to overcome those gaps.

The following professional practice gap was identified by a combined effort of the

ACNS's Program, Course and Continuing Medical Education Committees. This

program is designed to address the following professional practice gap:

Emerging Areas of Practice. Neurological intraoperative monitoring

(NIOM) and intensive care unit EEG monitoring (ICU EEG) are new and

rapidly evolving areas of clinical neurophysiology. Few practicing neurologists

have adequate training in these techniques, and physicians with competence in

these are in great demand. Educational activities should cover both basic

methodologies for those practitioners new to ICU EEG and NIOM, and

innovative techniques.
