It’s with great excitement that I invite you to the 70th AAN Annual Meeting in Los Angeles, a city known for its universities, many tourist attractions, music venues, and theater stages. After all, what better place for neurology to take center stage and your career to be cast in the spotlight than at the world’s largest gathering of neurologists and neurology professionals? No matter at what stage you find yourself in your career or subspecialty area of interest, you will find your keys to success in Los Angeles this April. This year’s meeting will showcase 235 expert-led education courses and present the most groundbreaking research with a record-breaking 2,700+ contributed abstracts. In addition, you will find countless opportunities to enjoy, relax and rejuvenate your mind and body so that you can focus on doing what you do best: providing the best possible care, research, and support for patients with neurologic disease. To help you navigate the meeting and make the most of your week, we have added new tracks and other enhancements that are detailed on the facing page. These additions are just a sampling of what you can expect to find in 2018. I encourage you to visit AAN.com/view/AM18 to learn more about all the opportunities at this year’s meeting. I have no doubt that you will not easily find another venue combining choice and flexibility with great value. I look forward to seeing you in sunny California this April.

Perception Is Reality: Are Neurologists Helping Patients Live Well with Dementia? Topic: Aging, Dementia, Cognitive, and Behavioral Neurology Speakers: Daniel C. Potts, MD, FAAN, Tuscaloosa, AL Neelum T. Aggarwal, MD, Chicago, IL Experiential Learning Area: Live Well

CEDJ

Program Description: Many persons living with dementia report the negative impact of their interactions with neurologists, especially when receiving their diagnosis. These interactions are often characterized as lacking empathy and compassion, with poor communication of available resources, and a general lack of effort or concern to help patients live well with their diagnosis. Interactions such as these may have far-reaching consequences, including negatively impacting patients' perceived selfworth and caregiver well-being, undermining trust in the physician-patient relationship, and adversely impacting treatment compliance. Contributing factors may include physician burn-out, challenges in breaking bad news, implicit bias against persons living with dementia, failure of the built practice environment to support high quality person-centered care, etc. This 1-hour offering will include a panel discussion with persons living with dementia, a virtual dementia simulation, a discussion of the changing demographics, genetics and neuroethics of Alzheimer’s and other dementias, and a time for audience questions and comments.

C107 What Do I Do Now?: Assessment and

Management of Neuropsychiatric Symptoms in Neurocognitive Disorders

Topic: Aging, Dementia, Cognitive, and Behavioral Neurology Director: Daniel Kaufer, MD, FAAN, Chapel Hill, NC

Program Description: This course will outline practical, systematic approaches to assessing and managing neuropsychiatric symptoms in neurocognitive disorders. Neuropsychiatric symptoms reflect cerebral dysfunction across a wide range of cortical and subcortical networks. They represent core features of dementia with Lewy bodies and behavioral variant frontotemporal degeneration, and are often clinically significant co-morbidities in Alzheimer’s disease and other neurocognitive disorders. This year’s course will follow the "What Do I Do Now?" format, including cases that illustrate common management decision points and using ARS to facilitate audience participation. Audience members will be invited to submit challenging cases prior to the course. Faculty will review the spectrum of neuropsychiatric disturbances seen in neurocognitive disorders, discuss practical clinical assessment techniques based on informant report, and outline a systematic approach to management including pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to efficiently identify and assess common neuropsychiatric symptoms; develop a systematic approach to formulating a flexible, comprehensive treatment plan; select appropriate pharmacological therapies for specific target symptoms to ensure safety, improve quality of life, and minimize patient and caregiver distress; better understand possible iatrogenicity and minimize risks associated with polypharmacy; and become familiar with behavioral modification techniques and use community resources for caregiver education and support.

Apraxias and Action-Intentional Disorders Chalk Talk

Topic: Aging, Dementia, Cognitive, and Behavioral Neurology Director: Kenneth M. Heilman, MD, FAAN, Gainesville, FL

Program Description: In humans the corticospinal motor system, together with the motor units, can mediate an almost infinite number of movements. For humans to successfully interact and make alterations, these motor neurons need to be guided by instructions or programs. There are two major types of motor programs. The praxic programs provide the corticospinal system with the knowledge of "how" to perform purposeful skilled movements and the action-intentional programs provide the corticospinal system with information about "when" to move. Many neurological disorders impair the networks that mediate praxis and intention. In this course we will discuss these intentional and praxis systems, including the means by which they can be assessed, the clinical subtypes of apraxia and intentional disorders, the diseases that can cause these disorders, as well as their pathophysiology. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to know how to examine patients for the different forms of apraxia and action-intentional disorders; be able to classify the type of apraxic disorder (ideomotor, limbkinetic, ideational, conceptual, conduction, and disassociation); be able to classify intention disorders including disorders of action initiation (akinesia), persistence (impersistence), response inhibition, action termination (perseveration); as well as understand the pathophysiology of these disorders and the diseases that can cause these disorders.

C146 Non-Alzheimer’s Dementia I: Frontotemporal Dementias

Topic: Aging, Dementia, Cognitive, and Behavioral Neurology Director: Gil Dan Rabinovici, MD, San Francisco, CA

Program Description: Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) defines a family of disorders that are characterized clinically by progressive changes in social-emotional function (behavioral-variant, bvFTD) or language (non-fluent/agrammatic or semantic variants of primary progressive aphasia, PPA), in the setting of degeneration of the frontal and anterior temporal lobes. FTD is as common as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in patients presenting with an early-onset dementia (under age 65), and familiarity with the syndromes can help neurologists advise on heritability, prognosis and appropriate treatment. Faculty will present a case-based approach to introduce the diverse clinical presentations of these disorders, and provide an update on biomarker development and advances in understanding the genetic and molecular underpinnings of these disorders. This program complements C161: Non-Alzheimer’s Dementia II: Lewy Body Dementias and Other Parkinsonian Dementias, but covers independent topics. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to apply up-to-date clinical criteria and diagnostic tools to classify the different subtypes of bvFTD and PPA, and differentiate these disorders from atypical presentations of AD. Improving clinical diagnosis and in vivo prediction of molecular pathology is critical in preparation for emerging disease-specific therapies for these disorders.

Program Description: This program will cover current knowledge and recommended practice for early-onset dementias (EODs). The emphasis will be on how EODs differ from the usual late-onset dementias and why they need to be distinguished. There are a tremendous number of differences that need to be discussed and understood. One is the unexpected presentations of these disorders, often misdiagnosed with delays in proper management. For example, there are variant cognitive phenotypes of AD in early life; there are many variants of the FTD spectrum disorders, as well; many other cognitive and behavioral conditions must be considered, as well. This program will also cover the unique aspects of management of these disorders. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to recognize early-onset dementias and their variable presentations, formulate a differential diagnosis, know when to use and apply new biomarkers and genetic tests, and be able to apply management strategies applicable to early-onset dementias.

C238 Memory Disorders: A Case-based Approach Topic: Aging, Dementia, Cognitive, and Behavioral Neurology Director: David A. Wolk, MD, Philadelphia, PA

Program Description: Memory loss is almost certainly the most common presenting cognitive complaint encountered by neurologists and internists in clinical practice. However, the underlying cognitive impairment may be quite disparate, reflecting the multiple memory systems that can dysfunction. Even within a particular type of memory (e.g., episodic memory), qualitative differences in the nature of the impairment may be due to disruption of different underlying component processes. As these systems and subprocesses have unique functional neuroanatomical underpinnings, identification has localizing value which ultimately assists in determining the etiology. Faculty will present cases to highlight practical approaches to the history and examination to make these distinctions and discuss use of ancillary studies and available therapeutic interventions. Upon Completion: Participants should develop a framework for the evaluation of patients with memory disorders with a particular focus on discriminating different types of memory failures and their implication for the underlying brain "lesion" and diagnosis.

abreast of advances in the field is a challenge. Several recent clinical trials will have substantial impact on stroke therapy. However, in some areas, the published data are conflicting, and there are numerous remaining questions leading to controversy regarding optimal management. Faculty will present a succinct, up-to-date, evidence-based approach to the comprehensive management of acute cerebral infarction and long-term stroke risk reduction. When an approach is unclear or unproven, faculty will discuss their experience with particular strategies. Presentations will provide concise, useful information that may be directly applied to the participant’s practice. Discussions will include common yet challenging scenarios in stroke management. The session will provide ample opportunity for participants to ask questions or present their own cases to the faculty. Upon Completion: Participants should be knowledgeable about the optimal management of acute cerebral infarction, including patient selection for thrombolytic treatment, endovascular therapy, and surgical interventions; and develop a logical framework for implementing various long-term vascular risk reduction strategies, including selection of antithrombotic agents, lipid modifiers, antihypertensive therapies, closure of PFO, and revascularization procedures.

Co-chairs: Ann H. Tilton, MD, FAAN, and Rujuta Bhatt, MD

Directors: Shafali Jeste, MD, and Sarah Spence, MD, PhD

Medical students and residents who are considering a career as a child neurologist will get a unique opportunity to meet with the experts and have their questions answered regarding a career as a child neurologist. Items discussed will include how different fellowships work, strategies for child neurology research, research funding, careers in child neurology education, and a discussion regarding careers in child neurology in the community. This event is invite only.

Rapid advances in our understanding of the underlying neurobiology of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has prompted more accurate and informed diagnoses, detailed prognostication, and the development of targeted treatment trials. However, these scientific achievements often become overshadowed by community practices that lack evidence or a scientific foundation, leaving patients and caregivers uncertain about best practices. The goal of this

session is to provide neurologists with clinically relevant scientific updates on autism spectrum disorders (ASD), in order to facilitate more informed dialogues with their patients. We will begin with a representative clinical case, followed by three presentations with paired abstracts on key topics in the autism field, including prediction and diagnostic biomarkers, clinical trials and therapeutics, and advances in genetics. Networking Reception The program will conclude with a wine and cheese reception allowing attendees an opportunity to network and talk with presenters.

We will begin with a representative clinical case, followed by three presentations with paired abstracts on key topics in the autism field, including prediction and diagnostic biomarkers, clinical trials and therapeutics, and advances in genetics. Upon Completion: Participants should become familiar with insights on early signs of ASD gained from studies of infants at risk for ASD; the definition of a biomarker and an understanding of the types of biomarkers investigated in ASD; challenges around clinical trial design and implementation in ASD; evidence around pharmacological interventions for ASD and updates from clinical drug trials; and updates on autism genetics, from recommended diagnostic practices to implications for management.

C171 Spanish Symposium: Update on Epilepsy

C172 Clinical Epilepsy I: Basics

Topic: Epilepsy/Clinical Neurophysiology (EEG) Director: Andres M. Kanner, MD, FAAN, Miami, FL

Program Description: Approximately 30% to 40% of patients with epilepsy fail to achieve seizure remission with antiepileptic drug therapy. In the last decade, there have been important innovations in pharmacologic, surgical and neuromodulation therapies. The aim of this program is to highlight the latest advances in the pharmacologic treatment with third generation AEDs, the new strategies of epilepsy surgery relying on less invasive techniques, such as laser ablation and the use of stereoencephalography for a more accurate localization of epileptogenic areas in non-lesional focal epilepsies and the use of neuromodulation techniques such as Responsive NeuroStimulation and Deep Brain Stimulation of thalamic nuclei. The program will be complemented with presentation of challenging cases that illustrate the use of these new pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic therapies. These cases will also be used to facilitate discussion among the faculty and with the audience. This program will be presented in Spanish. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to recognize the role of third generation AEDs in the management of epilepsy; decide on the use of various surgical strategies in the the presurgical evaluation and surgical management of non-lesional focal epilepsy; and have an understanding of when to chose one of the neurostimulation modalities (Response Neurostimulation System vs vagus nerve stimulation vs deep brain stimulation of anterior thalamic nuclei).

C223 The Burden of Epilepsy: Managing Comorbidities and Quality of Life

Topic: Epilepsy/Clinical Neurophysiology (EEG) Director: Gregory D. Cascino, MD, FAAN, Rochester, MN

Program Description: This program will address the cognitive, neurologic, and psychiatric disorders associated with epilepsy, and the socio-economic consequences of the disease. The adverse effects of the therapy will also be considered. The comorbidity of epilepsy may be progressive and impair the patients' quality of life. In selected individuals, these disorders may be more significant than the seizure activity. The burden of epilepsy is not well understood by many neurologists, and not addressed adequately in the evaluation and treatment of people with epilepsy. Upon Completion: Participants should become familiar with the current recommendations for the evaluation and treatment of comorbid conditions that occur in people with epilepsy, including language and cognitive disorders, behavioral problems, depression, and complications of treatment. Clinical pearls to screen patients for significant mood disorders that may be associated with suicide will be provided.

C234 Epilepsy Skills Workshop: Focus on Treatment

$ (registration required) Topic: Epilepsy/Clinical Neurophysiology (EEG) Director: William O. Tatum, IV, DO, FAAN, Jacksonville, FL

Program Description: Recognizing important key elements of management requires experience which is often best learned through a direct "handson" approach. The goal of this workshop is to facilitate practical learning regarding accurate seizure and epilepsy diagnosis and treatment. Topics will include EEG interpretation, video EEG monitoring, childhood epilepsy syndromes, seizure emergencies, and outpatient clinical medical and surgical decision-making in patients with epilepsy emphasizing clinical pearls gleaned from the history, physical examination, and diagnostic evaluation. An expert faculty will emphasize skills pertaining to common errors, misinterpretation, gaps, and pitfalls using case studies, protocols that involve a Sim-man in the status epilepticus portion of the workshop, and a hands-on demonstration of neuromodulation. Groups will be limited to 20 attendees to maximize the opportunity to interact with an expert faculty. Common case scenarios expected to be encountered in routine clinical practice will be presented to provide skills for the practicing neurologist. Upon Completion: Participants should become familiar with the essential skills required to provide effective emergency management of seizures in the hospital and at the bedside; learn how to identify commonly misdiagnosed EEG patterns and typical semiologies necessary to make accurate diagnoses; understand how to address common chief complaints of patients with seizures and epilepsy who present to the outpatient clinic; be able to apply new definitions and terminology to patients with seizures; and integrate newer forms of treatment including new anti-seizure drugs, formulations, surgical techniques and neuromodulation into the treatment regimens of both the pediatric and adult patients with epilepsy.

Program Description: Evidence implicating social and behavioral influences, such as social isolation, with higher risk of stroke, cognitive dysfunction, and accumulation of Alzheimer’s disease pathology suggests that healthy cognitive aging may be heavily influenced by social relationships, a largely unexplained modifiable risk factor that represents the combined effect of distinct functional (social support) and structural (social network) elements. We will examine the existing evidence supporting this association and discuss challenges and opportunities in its study.

Resiliency for the Neurologist Topic: General Neurology Speaker: Justin T. Jordan, MD, MPH, Boston, MA Experiential Learning Area: Live Well

DEC

Program Description: While specific vulnerability differs by subspecialty, death is an inescapable part of caring for patients with neurological disorders. In order to sustain quality and empathy in patient care, while simultaneously protecting one’s personal health and sense of worth, neurologists must be intentional in their efforts to preserve their own wellness and resiliency; critical to this balance are the avoidance of both professional burnout and compassion fatigue. In this discussion, I will provide a primer for neurologists on providing empathy to patients in a self-preserving manner, strategies for coping with professional loss without depersonalization, and ultimately prioritizing physician wellness as well as patient wellness.

Health Care Disparities Among Underserved Populations

General Neurology; Practice, Policy, and Ethics Speakers: Holly E. Hinson, MD, MCR, Portland, OR Charles C. Flippen II, MD, FAAN, Los Angeles, CA Lisa M. Shulman, MD, FAAN, Baltimore, MD Temitayo Oyegbile, MD, PhD, Washington, DC Experiential Learning Area: HeadTalks

Program Description: There are approximately 9 million Americans who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or intersex (LGBTQI). Increasingly, research has shown disparities in access to care, in outcomes for particular diseases, and higher all-cause mortality for this community, prompting the NIH to recently designate this community as a healthy disparity population in need of further research. While the etiology of these health disparities is multifactorial, studies have suggested that provider behavior is a significant contributing factor. We will provide a brief overview of this topic and summarize the work of the AAN’s LGBTQI section to address these healthcare disparities.

C168 CNS Toxicities

Topic: General Neurology Director: Neeraj Kumar, MD, Rochester, MN

Program Description: New drugs of abuse are emerging at an alarming rate as manufacturers of "legal high" products use chemicals to replace those that are banned. Many of these drugs (bath salts, spice, molly) are touted as legal, perceived as safe, and in many cases difficult to detect on standard drug screens. The industrial use of metals resulting in occupational exposure continues to engender public and scientific interest. Over the counter medications may be associated with neurotoxicity. Use of biologics like TNF alpha-inhibitors and various monoclonal antibodies may be accompanied by neurological side effects. CNS toxicities are seen in context of antineoplastics, antiepileptics, analgesics, anesthetics, and antimicrobials. Syndromes such as posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES), neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS), reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS), and serotonin syndrome result from commonly used medications. This course will cover the topic of CNS toxicities in a case-based format with a focus on recent developments. Upon Completion: Participants should have a clear understanding of how to diagnose and treat CNS disorders that may accompany heavy metal toxicity, illicit drug use, and those that occur as an adverse effect of prescribed medications.

Director: Deborah I. Friedman. MD, MPH, FAAN, Dallas, TX

Program Description: We learn the basics and guidelines on many headache diagnoses and treatments, but how do we apply this knowledge to real-life cases that we are challenged by in every day practice where the basics are not enough and even guidelines do not help us? This course is designed to challenge the attendee and the presenters as we work through complex headache cases—highlighting challenges to diagnosis, evaluation, interpretation, and treatment of complex cases. Faculty will highlight guidelines and best practice, with the assumption that attendees have had some basic headache background and are willing to grapple with complex issues in headache through discussion, sharing, and even debate. Cases will be posted ahead of time, with references and key points about the cases posted upon completion of the session. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to diagnose a variety of headache disorders often with confusing presentations, formulate treatment plans that can incorporate multi-disciplinary regimens, analyze drug treatment side effects as well as interactions in therapeutic options, recognize the importance of co-morbidities that contribute to complexity in headache diagnosis and treatment, and integrate these factors into a therapeutic plan.

Program Description: Infectious diseases of the central nervous system affect millions of people in tropical areas, where most of these conditions are linked to poverty and underdevelopment. In addition, increased tourism and immigration have turned some formerly geographically restricted infections into widespread conditions. Parasites and viruses are top ranked among infectious diseases in the tropics. In addition, tropical neurology is not confined to infections, since other conditions such as nutritional and toxic disorders, as well as bites from snakes and other poisonous animals represent significant causes of disease in rural areas of these regions. Infections and other tropical diseases of the nervous system cause pleomorphic and nonspecific clinical syndromes, including seizure disorders, subacute or chronic meningitis, acute or subacute encephalitis, space-occupying brain lesions, stroke, and

Nonmotor Manifestations of Parkinson’s Disease I

Topic: Movement Disorders Director: Charles H. Adler, MD, PhD, FAAN, Scottsdale, AZ

Program Description: This program will cover the nonmotor features that are known to predate motor Parkinson’s disease (PD), as well as those that affect quality of life as PD progresses. PD is a systemic disorder and there will be discussion of the pathological basis for nonmotor features. Data will be presented showing which findings predate motor PD and how these may be used to identify individuals at higher risk for developing PD. Methods to assess patients for nonmotor symptoms, including questionnaires and examination methods, will be discussed. As quality of life has been shown to be very impacted by nonmotor features of PD, this course will raise awareness of a topic that has not received nearly enough attention by PD and non-PD neurologists. This program complements: C52: Nonmotor Manifestations of Parkinson’s Disease II, but covers independent topics. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to discuss Prodromal Parkinson’s disease and identify nonmotor features of PD that predate motor signs, and discuss methods for assessing nonmotor features including questionnaires and examination skills.

Evaluating Tremor in the Office

Topic: Movement Disorders Director: Vicki Shanker, MD, New York, NY

Program Description: This program is geared towards general practioners and trainees. Tremor is a common presentation in the neurologist’s office and may be normal or pathologic. Although phenomenologically there are several characteristic differences of the disease states that produce these tremors, parkinsonian tremor, essential tremor, and dystonic tremor are often confused, leading to early misdiagnosis and delay in care. Through didactic lecture and video clips, in addition to case-based presentations, faculty will review key distinguishing characteristics of common and uncommon disease entities that produce tremor and provide clinical pearls for diagnosis.

Upon Completion:

At the conclusion of this program, you are invited to continue the conversation with the director and faculty. More information will be provided at the conclusion of the program.

Participants should better appreciate the clinical importance of gait and balance disorders, gain techniques to improve their exam of gait and balance, learn to use the current classification of gait and balance disorders in a clinically useful manner, and learn to recognize several common gait and balance disorders.

Upon Completion: Participants should be able to recognize the clinical features of a parkinsonian tremor, essential tremor, and dystonic tremor as well as less common tremor conditions, and be able to apply clinical techniques to distinguish these disease entities in the office.

Multiple Sclerosis in the Trenches: Controversy and Consensus in Clinical Decision-Making

Topic: MS and CNS Inflammatory Disease Director: Aaron E. Miller, MD, FAAN, New York, NY

Program Description: Clinical decision-making in MS has become increasingly complex with more than a dozen disease-modifying agents FDA approved, and still others used off-label. Recent changes in diagnostic criteria and phenotype classification increase the challenges. Assimilating and using this new information may be particularly difficult for neurologists who do not have the extensive experience of MS subspecialists. This course will address those challenges by utilizing a novel, interactive format to engage the audience in answering the practical questions that arise in daily clinical practice. The format will consist of a series of brief case vignettes focused on specific and controversial issues involving clinical decision nodes. For each vignette, two MS experts will offer their opinions about the course of action and the moderator will add or elicit further commentary. The audience may express their own views, before and after the experts, using the audience response system. Upon Completion: Participants should better understand and select DMTs in various circumstances; better understand the use of the McDonald Criteria and their limitations, as well as the new phenotypic descriptions used for MS; and better understand a variety of social and other medical situations that impact the management of people with MS.

C109 Multiple Sclerosis Overview II: Clinical Advances

Topic: MS and CNS Inflammatory Disease Director: Scott Douglas Newsome, DO, FAAN, Baltimore, MD

Program Description: It is extremely important for clinicians treating MS to enhance their knowledge base about the changing landscape of the MS disease-modifying therapies (DMTs). Making treatment decisions for an individual MS patient is a daunting task and the individualized patient benefit-risk assessment becomes increasingly difficult as new therapies emerge. Furthermore, if these therapies become available, clinicians need to have a full understanding of their benefit-risk profiles. Faculty will review the efficacy and safety profiles of current and late-stage emerging MS DMTs. It is equally challenging to define what constitutes optimal and suboptimal response to DMTs for an individual patient. Moreover, it is critical for clinicians to be able to recognize short-term clinical and paraclinical factors that may help identify patients at high risk for long-term disability. Faculty will review key considerations in MS clinical practice to address the above challenges in both didactic and case-based formats.

modifying Treatment II

Topic: MS and CNS Inflammatory Disease Director: John W. Rose, MD, FAAN, Salt Lake City, UT

Management

Topic: MS and CNS Inflammatory Disease Director: Jonathan L. Carter, MD, Scottsdale, AZ

Program Description: Disease-modifying treatments in MS are one of the most rapidly evolving areas of therapeutic intervention in neurology. As new treatments become available, the options for patients, and their prescribing physicians, increases. Many of the newer therapies have complex risk: benefit profiles and require specialized expertise for safe and effective administration. Faculty will focus on therapeutic strategies and risk mitigation of currently available diseasemodifying therapies, discuss proper use of these drugs and risk assessment, and use specific examples to cover the most frequent issues arising from MS treatment strategies.

Program Description: Symptom management in MS remains a very important determinant of quality of life in MS patients, even with the advent of increasing numbers of MS disease-modifying therapies. Symptoms of MS may be under-recognized and there are knowledge gaps among neurologists regarding management of these common symptoms. Faculty will review the management of common MS symptoms including spasticity, fatigue, gait disorders, bladder problems, bowel problems, and sexual dysfunction, and conclude with a panel discussion regarding management of these and other commonly encountered symptoms in MS patients.

This program complements C136: Multiple Sclerosis Therapy: Disease-modifying Treatment I and C162: Multiple Sclerosis Therapy: Symptom Management, but covers independent topics.

This program complements C136: Multiple Sclerosis Therapy: Disease-modifying Treatment I and C147: Multiple Sclerosis Therapy II: Disease-modifying Treatment II, but covers independent topics.

Upon Completion: Participants should be able to diagnose and treat symptoms of fatigue, sleep disorders, spasticity, gait difficulties, bladder and bowel symptoms, and sexual dysfunction in MS patients.

Diets and Supplements in MS: What’s the Evidence Thus Far? Topic: MS and CNS Inflammatory Disease Speaker: Vijayshree Yadav, MD, MCR, FANA, Portland, OR Experiential Learning Area: Live Well

Program Description: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurologic illness where the cause remains unknown. While approved disease modifying therapies are the mainstay of MS management, there can be many side effects of the drugs that limit their use. In part due to these factors, there is a huge interest amongst the people with MS to try dietary approaches or non-pharmacological agents to help MS. Most of the time the people with MS do not discuss these options with their MS providers and additionally MS providers are not enough knowledgeable about potential role or side effects of these approaches in MS management. The scientific evidence supporting the use of dietary approaches or supplement intake is evolving and there is a significant need to educate both health care providers as well people with MS to make better management choices for the MS care. This talk will give an update of research in common dietary approaches and supplement use in MS.

The cases are selected in collaboration with faculty and experts from the Autoimmune Neurology Section of the AAN. Upon Completion: Participants should be familiar with the spectrum of autoimmune and paraneoplastic neurological disorders, with a focus on the intersection of autoimmune neurology on all traditional neurology subspecialties, including movement disorders, epilepsy, behavioral/ cognitive, neuromuscular, autonomic, demyelinating, and neurooncologic. Participants should also recognize the systemic manifestations associated with autoimmune neurologic disorders as clues to diagnosis, and be able to discriminate antibody-mediated neurologic disorders from mimics, including other autoinflammatory conditions, neurologic manifestations of rheumatologic disease, and immunodeficiency states with superimposed autoimmunity. There will be a focus on practical approaches to diagnosis treatment based on objective parameters and outcomes.

C211 Case Studies in the ICU

Topic: Neuro Trauma, Critical Care, and Sports Neurology Director: Nicholas Joseph Silvestri, MD, FAAN, Buffalo, NY

Program Description: Neurologic complications in ICU patients often have a substantial negative impact on their outcome. Neurologists are being asked increasingly to evaluate patients in intensive care units. They are often called to assess unusual neurologic manifestations of other primary diseases, evaluate the consequences of critical care therapy, offer a prognosis, or determine brain death. Using a case-based approach, faculty will provide the core elements of modern neurologic critical care and suggested approach to the management of some of the most commonly encountered problems. Topics will include: approach to neurologic problems in the ICU, including failure to awaken after cardiac arrest; brain death; neuromuscular considerations in the ICU; difficulty-towean off artificial ventilation; and epilepsy, including status epilepticus. Interactions between faculty and participants will be encouraged. Upon Completion: Participants should have a comprehensive understanding of the general aspects of critical care of neurologic patients and common neurologic problems encountered in the ICU setting, be able to incorporate evidence-driven data into their recommendations, and be able to evaluate and treat common disorders in the ICU and provide an opinion regarding prognosis.

Neuroscience in the Clinic: Antisense Oligonucleotide (ASO) Therapy

Topic: Neuromuscular and Clinical Neurophysiology (EMG) Directors: John W. Day, MD, PhD, Palo Alto, CA Richard S. Finkel, MD, Orlando, FL

Program Description: Ongoing clinical research has already identified the genetic cause of hundreds of distinct disorders, most notably in the area of neuromuscular neurology. While knowing the underlying genetic cause provides a clear target for course-modifying treatments, the ability to successfully and safely modify genes in the clinical world has remained difficult until very recently. After decades of development, technologies are now being successfully used to modify pathogenic mutations using antisense technologies. The faculty will discuss the range of antisense technologies now in clinical investigation, and the multiple methods by which they can alter expression of disease-causing mutations, focusing on current successes such as for Spinal Muscular Atrophy, and future targets. Specific cases will be discussed to show how antisense technologies are being used clinically and how they will impact current and future care of neuromuscular disorders. Upon Completion: Participants will be able to identify different antisense oligonucleotide chemistries and their relative values. They will understand the biodistribution and pharmacokinetics of some antisense oligonucleotides, and the various ways in which antisense oligonucleotides can impact normal and pathogenic gene expression. They will get an update on recently approved antisense treatments that are now commercially available, as well as those that are currently in development.

Program Description: At least 20 million people in the United States suffer from peripheral neuropathy. Regardless of the cause, relief of symptoms including pain, tingling, autonomic dysfunction and weakness is important to maintain function and quality of life. Given that symptomatic treatments do not "repair" neuropathy, that this may be a lifelong problem and that people with neuropathy often are taking medications for other illnesses, an approach that does not use oral medication may be best. I will discuss symptomatic treatments of neuropathy that do not involve the use of oral medications. I will also address the usefulness of treatments advertised on the Internet, including devices and supplements.

Topic:

Neuromuscular and Clinical Neurophysiology (EMG) Platform Session Neuromuscular and Clinical Neurophysiology (EMG)

Program Description: Interpretation of EMG studies relies on the ability to accurately identify and interpret normal and abnormal spontaneous activity and changes in motor unit potentials (MUP) that occur in neuromuscular diseases. Mastering accurate and efficient EMG waveform identification requires learning skills of pattern recognition and auditory semi-quantitation. Once these skills are learned, EMG diagnostic efficiency and accuracy can be enhanced with appropriate practice. This interactive session will teach attendees methods used to identify EMG waveforms using an interactive, audience participation approach. Attendees will learn and practice the methods of auditory pattern recognition and semi-quantitation with focus on MUP recruitment, as well as recognition of other MUP parameters including stability, phases, and duration. Examples of spontaneous EMG waveforms and MUP abnormalities will be shown through case examples to test waveform recognition skills. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to demonstrate the ability to recognize the auditory firing patterns of EMG waveforms; understand the significance of abnormal recruitment changes in motor unit potential in diseases; recognize morphologic MUP changes according to the temporal course of a neuromuscular disease; learn to identify common and uncommon abnormal spontaneous EMG waveforms; and correlate EMG abnormalities with underlying neuromuscular diseases.

Program Description: Placebo effect is not the result of an "inert agent" but it relates to engagement in a clinical environment. If controlled for regression to the mean, spontaneous remission and other bias, placebo effect results from a reproducible complex psychobiological effect that involves release of certain cerebral chemicals and activation of certain neural pathways. Failure of many clinical trials for pain is attributed to the power of the placebo arm. The field of neuromuscular medicine just recently started looking into the impact of placebo both in clinical trials and on the health and disease of the neuromuscular patients.

SPECIAL PRESENTATION Bennet Omalu, MBBS, MPH, MBA

Don’t Break the Rules, Change the Game: How Bennet Omalu SingleHandedly Changed American Football, Professional Sports, and How the World Perceives Traumatic Brain Injuries Tuesday, April 24, 1:00 p.m.–2:15 p.m. As chronicled in the 2015 film “Concussion,” Bennet Omalu’s story is one of triumph in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. Born in eastern Nigeria during a civil war, Omalu and his family lived as refugees, yet he entered medical school at age 15 and became a physician by age 21. Steven DeKosky, MD, FAAN, FANA, FACP, is the Deputy Director of the McKnight Brain Institute in Gainesville, FL. In 2002, he was introduced to Dr. Omalu at the University of Pittsburgh. After looking at the case of the late Pittsburgh Steeler Mike Webster, they together confirmed the first case of dementia pugilistica/chronic encephalopathy in an American football player. Four more cases followed. As the first doctors to identify chronic brain damage as a major factor in the deaths of some professional athletes, DeKosky and Omalu withstood dismissals, backlash, and pressure from peers and the National Football League. Omalu’s new memoir, Truth Doesn’t Have a Side, will be available for purchase both before and after his presentation. Following Omalu’s presentation, he will be joined by DeKosky for a panel discussion.

Neuroscience in the Clinic: Neurologic Complications of Cancer Immunotherapy: A New Frontier in Neuro-Inflammation

Topic: Neuro-oncology Directors: Antonio M. P. Omuro, MD, Miami, FL Andreas Felix Hottinger, MD, Lausanne, Switzerland

Program Description: The use of anti-cancer immunotherapies has become widespread in oncology, and multiple agents spanning a variety of mechanisms of action are currently approved, including immune checkpoint inhibitors (anti-CTLA-4, PD-1 and PD-L1 antibodies), CAR-T cells therapy and dendritic cell vaccines. Many of these agents disrupt mechanisms involved in prevention of auto-immunity and maintenance of selftolerance, or have pro-inflammatory properties. As a result, a wide spectrum of neurologic inflammatory complications have emerged as potential, and at times life-threatening side effects, posing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges that neurologists will be required to address. In this course, the most common immunotherapy complications involving both the CNS and peripheral nervous system will be reviewed, including encephalitis, myelitis, peripheral neuropathies, radiculopathies, neuro-muscular junction disorders and myopathy. The mechanisms underlying these side effects, as well as principles governing immune responses within the nervous system will be discussed, integrated with a review on diagnosis and clinical management.

C174 Rehabilitation in Neurology

Topic: Neuro-rehabilitation Director: Marc W. Slutzky, MD, PhD, Chicago, IL

Program Description: Neurologic rehabilitation is a dynamic process through which patients optimize physical, cognitive, and social functions. It is a patient-centered, multidisciplinary endeavor involving neurologists and a wide range of providers. The ultimate objectives are to renew or maintain independence, participation, and quality of life despite the impairments. Over the past two decades, growing evidence supports specific approaches to neurologic rehabilitation. Rehabilitation is also the translation of basic and clinical neuroscience research to maximize mechanisms of neural reorganization and compensation. Faculty will use the examples of post-stroke care, as well as the care of patients with spinal cord injury, to highlight the role of neurologists in rehabilitation, as well as highlight future directions and emerging technologies that promise to revolutionize neurologic rehabilitation. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to develop a greater understanding of the multidisciplinary care of patients with disability from neu rologic diseases, as well as develop understanding of the current research for improving care.

Myelopathic Patients for Inflammatory and Vascular Causes

Topic: Neuro-rehabilitation Director: Benjamin M. Greenberg, MD, FAAN, Dallas, TX

Program Description: Acute and subacute myelopathies are common diagnostic considerations in neurological practice. Patients and clinicians are forced to consider multiple potential conditions that are considered neurological emergencies. Myelitis is one potential cause of acute and subacute myelopathy that must be considered. Updates to the approach to diagnosis and consideration of a variant of myelitis— acute flaccid myelitis—will be covered in this course. Furthermore, vascular myelopathies can be difficult to diagnose if clinicians are not familiar with both the presentation and options for testing.

More than Medicine: How to Access Home Care, Support Caregivers, and Discuss Complex Situations in Advanced Neurologic Disease

Topics:

Pain and Palliative Care; Aging, Dementia, Cognitive, and Behavioral Neurology Director: Farrah N. Daly, MD, MBA, Leesburg, VA

Program Description: Despite excellent medical management, in progressive neurologic disease disability accumulates and caregivers experience greater strain. Neurologists can feel frustrated or disheartened by the feeling that they are no longer making a difference. However, neurologists can always make a difference! By connecting patients with appropriate home-based resources, identifying caregiver strain, and facilitating goals of care discussions, neurologists can continue to do excellent work for their patients as disease progresses. This program will provide practical strategies to coordinate care and support patients and families in the context of advanced illness. Through case-driven discussion, personal experience, and literature review, faculty will review challenges and resources for care of patients with neurologic disease in the home and longterm care settings, methods of screening for caregiver stress, and communication tools useful for effective advance care planning. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to list features of progressive neurologic disease that should trigger a palliative care or hospice referral, name at least two situations that are associated with high risk of caregiver strain, and discuss strategies for effective communication regarding transitions of care and advance care planning.

What Keeps You Up at Night? Addressing Mistakes and Injuries, In-n-Out-Patient Transition, and Building a Team to Support You

Topic: Practice, Policy, and Ethics Director: Justin P. Martello, MD, Newark, DE

Program Description: We often take it for granted that when a patient leaves your office, he/she will return in pristine order at their next visit—labs will be done, testing will be performed, medications will be administered properly. "The best laid plans…" never accounts for human error, despite all our best efforts to explain to the patient, in detail, the role and responsibility they have in their health care between visits. This course will act as a helpful guide on dealing with the unknown elements your patients are at risk for between office visits (from hospitalizations to medical error, including your own, to what plays a role in non-adherence) leading to a sounder sleep at night, knowing your patient is in the hands of a good health care team with a foolproof plan. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to understand how to address medical mistakes that may or may not lead to harm and the ethical implications involved; understand how to anticipate the problems that may arise between office visits and common patient questions/ concerns/confusion/misperceptions; understand the best ways to facilitate between a patient’s hospitalization and transition between the in-patient and out-patient world; and understand how to form a support team to help in the care of your patient.

C231 ICD-10-CM: How to Optimize for Accurate Diagnosis and Reimbursement

Topic: Practice, Policy, and Ethics Director: Jeffrey R. Buchhalter, MD, FAAN, Phoenix, AZ

Program Description: On October 1, 2015, the ICD-10-CM code set became required for all transactions involving reimbursement from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, as well as for other third-party payers. A one-year grace period was granted that allowed full reimbursement for using the correct code family without full specificity. Presenters will use a case-based approach focusing on practical aspects of ICD-10 including optimizing coding specificity for common neurologic disorders (e.g., stroke, epilepsy, headache), how codes relate to value-based reimbursement (QPP), severity coding (HCC), and how more accurate coding results in fewer denials. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to code common neurologic disorders to the highest degree of specificity to reflect the severity of illness, know the codes for several of the most commonly encountered disorders seen by neurologists, understand how coding plays an essential role in value-based reimbursement, and avoid and respond to denials for services rendered.

C242 Coding 101: It’s Not Your Father’s Oldsmobile

Topic: Practice, Policy, and Ethics Director: Bruce H. Cohen, MD, FAAN, Akron, OH

Program Description: Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) is a publication of the American Medical Association. The E/M codes themselves comprise only a small part of CPT and are the codes that are used in delivering cognitive services. In general, the E/M codes require no special technology and cover visits in the ambulatory and inpatient setting, ED, and other approved health care settings. In this course the most common codes used for the ambulatory and inpatient setting will be discussed, and the rules of how these codes applied stressed. Basic EEG and EMG coding will also be presented, and the most common pitfalls in coding will be presented. Because providers are now providing an increasing amount of time performing non-face-toface patient management, new codes for these services are being developed and approved, and will be discussed as well. Upon Completion: Participants will understand the basis of face-to-face E/M coding, as well as the common pitfalls in incorrect coding; describe the differences between attended and unattended prolonged EEG studies as well as the difference to the patient if the study is performed in an inpatient vs observation setting, and learn the basics of simple EEG coding; determine how to properly code for EMG services; and become familiar with the new codes for nonface-to-face coding that is relevant to the practice of neurology.

C231 ICD-10-CM: How to Optimize for Accurate Diagnosis and Reimbursement

Topic: Practice, Policy, and Ethics Director: Jeffrey R. Buchhalter, MD, FAAN, Phoenix, AZ

Program Description: On October 1, 2015, the ICD-10-CM code set became required for all transactions involving reimbursement from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, as well as for other third-party payers. A one-year grace period was granted that allowed full reimbursement for using the correct code family without full specificity. Presenters will use a case-based approach focusing on practical aspects of ICD-10 including optimizing coding specificity for common neurologic disorders (e.g., stroke, epilepsy, headache), how codes relate to value-based reimbursement (QPP), severity coding (HCC), and how more accurate coding results in fewer denials. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to code common neurologic disorders to the highest degree of specificity to reflect the severity of illness, know the codes for several of the most commonly encountered disorders seen by neurologists, understand how coding plays an essential role in value-based reimbursement, and avoid and respond to denials for services rendered.

J K Program Description: Infectious diseases of the central nervous system affect millions of people in tropical areas, where most of these conditions are linked to poverty and underdevelopment. In addition, increased tourism and immigration have turned some formerly geographically restricted infections into widespread conditions. Parasites and viruses are top ranked among infectious diseases in the tropics. In addition, tropical neurology is not confined to infections, since other conditions such as nutritional and toxic disorders, as well as bites from snakes and other poisonous animals represent significant causes of disease in rural areas of these regions. Infections and other tropical diseases of the nervous system cause pleomorphic and nonspecific clinical syndromes, including seizure disorders, subacute or chronic meningitis, acute or subacute encephalitis, space-occupying brain lesions, stroke, and myelopathy. In this course we will review the most common tropical diseases in the tropics. This program will be presented in Spanish. Upon Completion: Participants should be able to recognize and treat the most common infections and other diseases affecting the nervous system in tropical areas.

General Information Accreditation/CME/Core Competencies Accreditation The American Academy of Neurology Institute (AANI) is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

AMA Credit Designation The American Academy of Neurology Institute designates this live activity for a maximum of (*) AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity. * See individual program descriptions in this booklet for the maximum number of credits per program.

CME/Participation Records AANI has mechanisms in place to record, and when authorized by the participating physician, verify participation in the CME activity. To receive CME for the Annual Meeting live program, participants must: (1) Have their badge printed on-site and be verified as eligible for credit; (2) Attend the program(s); and (3) Submit the evaluation form for the program(s). CME is given only when all three steps are completed. AAN member CME and participation transcripts are available approximately four to six weeks following the close of the meeting via the AAN’s NeuroTracker™ at AAN.com/view/NeuroTracker. Nonmembers’ CME credits and participation transcripts will be sent automatically via email.

ABPN Statement The American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology has reviewed the AAN Annual Meeting and has approved this product as a part of a comprehensive lifelong learning program which is mandated by the ABMS as a necessary component of maintenance of certification.

Core Competencies The AANI develops its activities/educational interventions in the context of the desirable physician attributes; specifically, of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Core Competencies which include: }} Patient Care }} Medical Knowledge }} Interpersonal and Communication Skills }} Practice-based Learning and Improvement }} Professionalism }} Systems-based Practice For more information on the definitions of the ACGME core 230 2018 AAN Annual Meeting

competencies, please consult the following webpage: ACGME.org. Once again, the Annual Meeting CME offerings, at the program and lecture level, are identified according to these competencies. Through identifying individual programs by competencies, attendees can easily identify and attend programs that meet each core competency. AMA CME Definition/Educational Content of Certified CME The AMA HOD and the Council on Medical Education have defined continuing medical education as follows: CME consists of educational activities which serve to maintain, develop, or increase the knowledge, skills, and professional performance and relationships that a physician uses to provide services for patients, the public, or the profession. The content of CME is the body of knowledge and skills generally recognized and accepted by the profession as within the basic medical sciences, the discipline of clinical medicine, and the provision of health care to the public. (HOD policy #300.988)

Certified CME is defined as: 1. Nonpromotional learning activities certified for credit prior to the activity by an organization authorized by the credit system owner, or 2. Nonpromotional learning activities for which the credit system owner directly awards credit Accredited CME providers may certify nonclinical subjects (e.g., office management, patient-physician communications, faculty development) for AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ as long as these are appropriate to a physician audience and benefit the profession, patient care, or public health. CME activities may describe or explain complementary and alternative health care practices. As with any CME activity, these need to include discussion of the existing level of scientific evidence that supports the practices. However, education that advocates specific alternative therapies or teaches how to perform associated procedures, without scientific evidence or general acceptance among the profession that supports their efficacy and safety, cannot be certified for AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™.

Content Validation The AANI, as an ACCME accredited provider, is responsible for validating the clinical content of CME activities that it provides. Specifically, (1) All the recommendations involving clinical medicine in a CME activity must be based on evidence that is accepted within the profession of medicine as adequate justification for their indications and contraindications in the care of patients. (2) All scientific research referred to, reported, or used in CME in support or justification of a patient care recommendation must conform to the generally accepted standards of experimental design, data collection, and analysis.

Disclaimers/Disclosures Disclaimer The primary purpose of the Annual Meeting is to meet the educational needs of its members and address practice gaps by providing practice oriented and scientifically based educational activities that will maintain and advance competence and performance in the field of neurology. A diversity of opinions exists in the medical field and the views of the Annual Meeting faculty do not represent those of the AAN/ AANI or constitute endorsement by the AAN/AANI. The AAN/AANI disclaims any and all liability for the claims that may result from the use or nonuse of information, publications, therapies, and/or services discussed at the Annual Meeting. The activities conducted and content distributed at the Annual Meeting are for educational purposes only and do not constitute standard of care or substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. In all cases, the selected course of action should be considered by the treating provider in the context of treating the individual patient. Use of the content provided is voluntary. The AAN/AANI provide this information on an â&#x20AC;&#x153;as isâ&#x20AC;? basis and makes no warranty, expressed or implied, regarding the information. The AAN/AANI specifically disclaim any warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular use or purpose. The AAN/ AANI assume no responsibility for any injury or damage to persons or property arising out of or related to any use of this information or for any errors or omissions. Attendee assumes any and all liability associated with attendance/participation at the Annual Meeting.

Relationship Disclosure and Conflict of Interest Resolution According to AANI and ACCME policies, everyone who is in a position to control the content of an education activity must disclose financial relationships with any commercial interest to the provider. An individual who refuses to disclose relevant financial relationships is disqualified from being a planning committee member, a teacher, or an author of CME, and cannot have control of, or responsibility for, the development, management, presentation, or evaluation of the CME activity. In addition, the AANI must implement a mechanism to identify and resolve all conflicts of interest prior to the education activity being delivered to learners. The resolution of conflict is handled by the Education and Science Committees. Disclosures for everyone in the position to control Annual Meeting content can be found on the AAN Annual Meeting website. In addition, education and science faculty disclosures can also be found in the syllabi, slides, handouts, and/or are given verbally from the podium.

Unlabeled Use Disclosure The AANI requires all Annual Meeting presenters to disclose if a therapy/product is not labeled for the use being discussed or if the therapy/product is still investigational. Unlabeled use disclosures can be found in the program materials.

Grants Some Annual Meeting education and scientific programs are supported in part by educational grants from commercial entities. Disclosure of the educational grant is done through acknowledgment statements on the program materials, signs outside of the room, and verbally from the podium. Although educational grants are received, all programs are developed and implemented solely by the Education Committee and Science Committee. The terms, conditions, and purposes of the commercial support are documented in a written agreement between the AANI and commercial supporter. The AAN uses grant funds to support and enhance existing, as well as new, education programs.
