?? Upcoming Webinar: Expand Your Knowledge on FND Functional Neurological Disorders are complex conditions that are frequently misunderstood. These disorders disrupt motor or sensory functions without an identifiable neurological cause, making them challenging to diagnose and treat. As a result, legal cases involving FND demand expert witnesses with a profound understanding of the condition and its complexities. To further support legal professionals, case managers, and medical experts, we are launching a series of webinars this autumn. The first in the series will focus on Functional Neurological Disorder—a must-attend event for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of this area. ?? Webinar: Understanding Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) for Medico-Legal Teams ?? Date: 17th October 2024 ? Time: 12:15 PM ?? Speakers: Michelle Kudhail, Mr. Rob Poppleton, and Dr. Edmund Bonikowski ?? Register: https://lnkd.in/emxinQ_y #FND #MedicoLegal #Webinar

Next up is PSPA Research Fellow, Dr Rob Durcan. Dr Durcan shares details of a clinical trial he is working on that is being running across a seven sites in the UK. Focusing on improving apathy and impulsivity in people living with PSP, Dr Durcan and the team at Cambridge at administering Noradrenaline in the hope of improving symptoms and thus quality of life and prognosis. The study will be continuing over the next 12 months. If you have been diagnosed with PSP and would like to take part, please email [email protected] #PSPAResearch #NeurologyResearch #PSPAware #ProgressiveSupranuclearPalsy

As we continue to follow the science to understand the impact of treatments on those with early symptoms of the disease, we must also focus our attention on preparing our health systems to be able to deliver on the promise of new and emerging treatments. ? Recently, our Laura Steele, Senior Vice President of the US Neuroscience Business Unit, joined Axios’ Nicholas Johnston in Washington, D.C. to discuss the future of cognitive care and the outlook for Alzheimer’s disease care in the U.S. ? Watch Laura and Nicholas’ View-from-the-Top segment and learn about how we can support an aging population and ensure appropriate patients have access to the treatments they need. The promise of progress can only be filled through collaboration. ? #Axios

Review and have you say. These are important guidelines for adults and children with #concussion.

The complexities and applications of T2 and T3 sympathetic blocks. Dr. Agnes Stogicza emphasizes the importance of understanding the sympathetic chain's anatomy for effective treatment. Key functions of the sympathetic system, such as vasomotor and afferent functions, are explored, highlighting their roles in pain reduction and vasodilation. There are various indications for sympathetic blocks, ranging from vascular conditions like Berger’s disease and Renaud disease to pain-related conditions such as CRPS. The speaker also touches upon the use of Stellate ganglion block for diverse conditions, including PTSD and COVID-related anosmia. ????

Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) can help individuals with functional neurological disorder (FND) by addressing feelings of shame and self-criticism, which are often prevalent in these patients. By fostering self-compassion, CFT aids in reducing anxiety and stress that can exacerbate FND symptoms. Take a look at how our paper explores this!

This raises some really useful points about how Compassion-Focused Therapy can be applied when working with patients with FND. There are ways that we as physiotherapists can promote self compassion and encourage our patients to engage in more self compassionate thinking and behaviour when they are undergoing rehabilitation with us. This could include: - Ensuring we cultivate warm, supportive and therapeutic relationships with our patients. - Setting small, specific and realistic goals, monitoring and celebrating progress made along the way. - Supporting our patients to reframe critical thoughts around parts of their rehabilitation they are finding challenging. - Recognising when our patients may need to access talking therapy for support of their mental health and possibly previous trauma.

June marks Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness about Alzheimer’s disease and other brain-related conditions. At this pivotal moment, let us unite in our efforts to shed light on the challenges faced by individuals and families affected by these complex neurological disorders. Diazyme is dedicating our time and resources to developing a panel of Assays to aid in the early detection and monitorization of Alzheimer’s including: Bamyloid 42, B Amyloid 40, p-Tau181, Nfl and ApoE4. Together, we can make a difference in the fight against Alzheimer’s disease and other brain-related conditions. #AlzheimersAwareness #BrainAwarenessMonth #Research
