This course was built in partnership with The Academy of Pediatric Physical Therapy.

This course will focus on the validation of clinical outcome tools for children with vestibular hypofunction and dosing of interventions to improve postural control and gaze stability in children with broad balance impairments and/or vestibular hypofunction. Intense interventions for children with cerebral palsy; oculomotor and vestibular function for individuals with concussion will be discussed.

Learning Objectives:

1. identificar las deficiencias vestibulares relacionadas y el potencial de rehabilitación para los niños, basado en los resultados de las pruebas clinicas.
2. discutir los mecanismos subyacentes a la mejoría de la estabilidad de la mirada y equilibrio mediante la rehabilitación vestibular.
3. diseñar intervenciones enfocadas al sistema vestibular para niños con deficiencias vestibulares
4. apreciar la evidencia actual relacionada a los parámetros de dosificación para intervencionas para las deficiencias de los reflejos vestibulo-ocular (rvo) y vestibulospinal (vsp) en niños
