Persistent Postural Perceptual Dizziness (AKA 3PD or PPPD) is a common vestibular condition that requires an in-depth understanding of its presentation so that it can be recognized. Treatment strategies are based on what is currently understood as the pathophysiological mechanisms contributing to the development of 3PD. Using Dr. Farrell’s patient care experience, that is based on research that is currently available, this course provides practical clinical information for assessment and treatment of patients with 3PD with the intention that treatment is individualized for each patient.

Audience
This intermediate level course is relevant for vestibular rehabilitation specialists.

Course Objectives
After completion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Recognize the presentation of 3PD when interviewing a patient with chronic symptoms of dizziness, vertigo, and unsteadiness by applying the diagnostic criteria for 3PD.

  • Understand the current proposed pathophysiology that explains why 3PD occurs for the purpose of educating patients.

  • Know the possible pharmaceutical and behavioral options for managing patients with 3PD.

  • Implement the appropriate physical rehabilitation assessment tools to identify impairments and activity limitations for patients with 3PD.

  • Outline a physical rehabilitation intervention plan tailored to address impairments and activity limitations identified during the assessment of patients with 3PD.
