Acute vestibular online learning package
Physiotherapists from the Royal Melbourne Hospital describe the development and feasibility testing of an online vestibular learning package aimed at improving clinician confidence and knowledge in the assessment and management of acute dizziness.
Dizziness represents around four per cent of emergency department presentations in Australia.
While often benign, it can indicate serious or life-threatening conditions such as stroke. Accurate assessment of patients presenting with acute dizziness is therefore critical.
