First Seizure e-learning resource

PENNSW has developed an e-learning educational resource regarding the approach to a first unprovoked seizure for Paediatricians and trainees in Paediatrics.

The learning may be counted towards the Royal Australasian College of Physicians (RACP) Continuing Professional Development (CPD) requirements. A single certificate is available after completion of the e-learning modules and the associated brief knowledge assessment.

The course explores the following topics:

  • Analysis of paroxysmal events: seizure versus non-seizure
  • Analysis of seizure: provoked versus non-provoked
  • Definitions and recurrence
  • Safety and risks
  • Investigations
  • Syndromal diagnosis
  • Treatment and management options

Each module of the E-learning is accessible by playing the videos below (listed in order).
