Confidently diagnose acute onset dizziness.
 Learn the skills needed to perform an effective bedside evaluation of sudden onset vertigo.
Dizziness accounts for 2.1-3.6% of emergency department (ED) visits per year.
Â
The misdiagnosis rate of peripheral vestibular disorders in the ED is approximately 74-81%.
Ruling in a peripheral cause of dizziness helps to rule out a central cause.
This course will provide critical information that will transform your vestibular practice. You’re just a few steps away from a confident skillset for assessing acute dizziness.Â
