+ Information:
This course was designed to address the “paradigm shift” in the understanding and treatment of migraine, moving beyond simple symptom management to treating migraine as a complex, multifaceted brain disease. Held at a premier venue in Florida, the program emphasized practical, clinical applications of new research. It provided a “fluff-free” educational environment where clinicians could explore the nuances of diagnosis, the integration of CGRP-targeted therapies, and the management of difficult-to-treat patient populations through interactive case studies.
+ What You Will Learn
Attendees were able to:
-
Evaluate the evolving definition of migraine and its classification as a brain disease with specific pathophysiological phases.
-
Implement an “Acute Care Toolbox” for patients who are unresponsive to standard first-line treatments.
-
Integrate pivotal data on CGRP monoclonal antibodies and gepants into preventive treatment plans.
-
Diagnose and manage complex headache presentations, including high and low-pressure headaches (CSF dynamics), dizzy headaches, and cluster headaches.
-
Apply evidence-based strategies for special populations, including pregnant/breastfeeding patients and the elderly.
-
Master procedural skills through case studies, specifically focusing on OnabotulinumtoxinA (Botox) injection protocols.
-
Improve patient communication techniques to better address chronic pain and medication overuse.
