Educational Mission StatementPurposeThe American Clinical Neurophysiology Society (ACNS) is a professional association dedicated to fostering excellence in clinical neurophysiology and furthering the understanding of central and peripheral nervous system function in health and disease through education, research, and the provision of a forum for discussion and interaction.

ContentACNS is committed to providing continuing medical education to its members and others interested in clinical neurophysiology. Educational objectives include 1) Reviewing current knowledge of clinical neurophysiology including: electroencephalography, evoked potentials, electromyography, nerve conduction studies, intraoperative monitoring, polysomnography and other sleep technology, quantitative neurophysiological methods, magnetoencephalography, sleep disorders, epilepsy, neuromuscular disorders, brain stimulation, brain-computer interfacing, and related areas; and 2) Informing course and meeting attendees of recent technological developments and their implications for clinical practice.

Target AudienceThe Society’s educational activities are directed to clinical neurophysiologists, neurologists, psychiatrists, physiatrists, neurosurgeons, trainees in these disciplines and other physicians and researchers who utilize clinical neurophysiological techniques and knowledge in the diagnosis and management of patients with disorders of the nervous system.

Expected ResultAttendees will improve competence in clinical neurophysiology procedures and incorporate new technological advancements into their practice.

Gaps and NeedsIn compliance with the Updated Accreditation Criteria of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Continuing Medical Education Committee of the ACNS has identified “professional practice gaps.” Definition: A “professional practice gap” is the difference between what a health professional is doing or accomplishing compared to what is achievable on the basis of current professional knowledge.

The following professional practice gaps and educational needs were identified by a combined effort of the Program, Course and CME Committees.

Gap 1. Emerging Areas of Practice Neurological intraoperative monitoring (NIOM) and intensive care unit EEG monitoring (ICU EEG) are new and rapidly evolving areas of clinical neurophysiology. Few practicing neurologists have adequate training in these techniques, and physicians with competence in these areas are in great demand. Educational activities should cover both basic methodologies for those practitioners new to ICU EEG and NIOM, and innovative techniques.

Gap 2. General Practice of Clinical Neurophysiology Clinical neurophysiology procedures are performed by a large proportion of practicing US neurologists, many of whom have little or no formal training in clinical neurophysiology. Many clinical neurophysiology procedures (e.g. evoked potentials, invasive EEG) are performed at low volume at most centers, and a forum for review and hands-on interpretation are essential to maintain competence in these areas.

Several specific topics with significant gaps between current practice and ideal practice have been identified via review of the literature, review of clinical

neurophysiology fellowship curricula, and surveys of ACNS members and Annual Meeting attendees.

These include: • Peripheralneurophysiology,PediatricEMG,criticalillnessrelatedneurophysiology,

and muscle ultrasound • BasicEEG:Identificationofnormalvariants,identificationofartifacts,clinical

correlation • PediatricEEG,especiallyneonatalEEG• DigitalEEGprocessing,e.g.quantitativeEEGandtrendsforuseintheintensive

care unit, source localization, coregistration with neuroimaging, etc. • FullbandEEG,UltrafastandultraslowEEG• NIOM:Motorevokedpotentials,guidelinesandstandardsofcareforNIOM(e.g.

indications, cost effectiveness) • Evokedpotentials:Currentroleofshort-andlong-latencyEPs• Video-EEGmonitoring,especiallyinvasiveEEG• Sleep,Useofnewscoringsystem,implicationsforpatientcare

Changes in Behavior/PracticeIt is intended that, as a result of attending the meeting and/ or courses, physician attendees will be able to identify changes in competence or performance that are desirable. Definitions: “Competence” is knowing how to do something. “Performance” is what the physician would do in practice, if given the opportunity.

EvaluationThe updated ACCME accreditation criteria are designed to integrate with the new requirements for maintenance of certification (for more information see www.ABPN.org). Physicians are expected to perform self-assessments of their practice, but the ACNS, as an organization accredited by the ACCME, is expected to measure how its educational activities assist physicians in this activity. Thus, there are new questions in the evaluation form. These questions address your intended changes in competence or performance. In a few months, we will contact all physician meeting attendeestoaskyouifyouactuallyHAVEexperiencedchangesincompetenceorperformance. Your responses, now and in the future, will assist us and ultimately you in determining educational activities that are most useful to you.

Policy on Financial DisclosuresIt is the policy of ACNS to ensure balance, independence, objectivity and scientific rigor in all its individually sponsored or jointly sponsored educational programs. In order to comply with the ACCME’s Updated Standards for Commercial Support, ACNS requires that anyone who is in a position to control the content of an educational activity discloses all relevant financial relationships with any commercial interest pertaining to the content of the presentation. Should it be determined that a conflict of interest exists as a result of a financial relationship of a planner of the CME activity, the planner must recuse himself or herself from the planning for that activity or relevant portion of that activity. All presentations for which the presenter disclosed a potential conflict of interest are peer reviewed by two members of the ACNS CME Committee with no relationships. If bias is found, the presenter is asked to make changes to the presentation and it is re-reviewed for bias before final approval. Refusal to disclose a conflict or the inability to resolve an identified conflict precludes participation in the CME activity. Complete conflict of interest disclosure information is printed in the final program for the activity. A learner may request additional information regarding the nature of a planner or speaker’s disclosure if “No Relevant Relationships” has been indicated below. To request additional information, contact the ACNS Executive office at [email protected].
