Atypical BPPV (VF-0003)


Description
This course provides a comprehensive overview of Atypical Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), focusing on the identification, differential diagnosis, and treatment of BPPV variants that deviate from the classic posterior canal presentation. Participants will explore the pathophysiology of atypical forms including horizontal canal, short arm posterior canal, and multi-canal involvement, as well as mimics of BPPV.

Through interactive case studies and video analysis learners will gain the skills necessary to recognize non-classic nystagmus patterns, apply advanced diagnostic maneuvers, and implement evidence-based treatment protocols tailored to complex BPPV cases.
