Teaching a Neurology Continuing Medical Education Course to Ghanaian Physician Assistants (P1.281)
Conclusions: The provision of education in the diagnosis and treatment of neurological conditions to primary care providers is one intervention that can address the limited supply of neurologists in lower income countries. This study suggests that a continuing medical education course can increase participant self-confidence in major topics in neurology and that the most valuable contribution of an educational intervention could be instruction in the neurological exam.Disclosure: Dr. O'Donnell has nothing to disclose.

Medical knowledge level of Roma inmantes
Conclusions. We have noticed that a great part of the subjects did not have basic medical knowledge. We can say that the level of tuition has a direct impact on FEV1. The primary care physician can potentially improve patient outcomes by increasing medical education level, including the recognition of exacerbation, risk factors, signs and symptoms. The format for the delivery of education will vary depending on staff availability and expertise.

Randomized Trial of Peripheral Nerve Stimulation to Enhance Modified Constraint-Induced Therapy After Stroke.
CONCLUSION: Pairing peripheral nerve stimulation with modified constraint-induced therapy can lead to significantly more improvement in upper extremity movement function than modified constraint-induced therapy alone. Future research is recommended to help establish longitudinal effects of this paired intervention, particularly as it affects movement function and daily life participation.

Corticomotor Excitability Effects of Peripheral Nerve Electrical Stimulation to the Paretic Arm in Stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: A 1-hr PNS alone to the paretic arm could increase corticomotor excitability in both hemispheres, together with hand dexterity improvement in people presented with mild-to-moderate motor impairment in the paretic upper limb after stroke. TO CLAIM CME CREDITS: Complete the self-assessment activity and evaluation online at http://www.physiatry.org/JournalCME CME OBJECTIVES: Upon completion of this article, the readers should be able to: (1) Understand the effects of a stroke on the corticomotor excitability of the lesioned and intact hemisphere; (2) Describe the effect of peripheral nerve electrical stimula...

Stroke education in the Philippines
Education is paramount in effectively reducing the significant burden of stroke in the Philippines. Dedicated academic institutions and dynamic professional organizations in the Philippines have collaborated to involve themselves in the plight against stroke through systematic curriculum development for undergraduates, continuous regulation of quality residency and fellowship training program, hosting up‐to‐date Continuing Medical Education (CME) activities for local and international audience, and active participation in clinical stroke trials. Most recently, the University of Santo Tomas Faculty of Medicine & Sur...
