Approach to Headache, Dizziness & Syncope

Training Overview

Approach to Headache, Dizziness & Syncope is a comprehensive, simulation-based educational program designed to strengthen the diagnostic reasoning, clinical decision-making, and patient management skills of neurologists when evaluating common yet challenging neurological presentations. Hosted at the ADN CoE Training, Research Center & Core Lab, this two-day program combines structured theoretical education with hands-on clinical simulations, focusing on accurate diagnosis, risk stratification, and evidence-based management.

The course covers systematic approaches to headache disorders, vertigo and dizziness syndromes, and syncope, emphasizing red flags, differential diagnosis, and efficient use of diagnostic tools. Participants gain practical insight into distinguishing benign conditions from life-threatening neurological and systemic causes.

Through interactive simulation workshops, attendees manage realistic patient scenarios involving acute and chronic headache, central vs. peripheral vertigo, autonomic dysfunction, and transient loss of consciousness. Simulations are guided by expert neurologists and international faculty, reinforcing structured clinical reasoning and workflow efficiency.

In addition to technical training, the program features expert-led discussions on treatment strategies, referral pathways, and multidisciplinary collaboration. Case-based sessions address common diagnostic pitfalls, emergency presentations, and long-term follow-up planning.

By the end of the program, participants will have improved their confidence in evaluating complex symptoms, optimizing diagnostic accuracy, and delivering patient-centered neurological care.
