The International Rehabilitation Clinic Kozyavkin has launched the masterclass “Acute Neurology in Pediatrics — European Paediatric Neurology Society (EPNS) Training Course for Ukraine.”
The event brought together specialists in pediatric neurology from Ukraine and abroad for professional dialogue, practical exchange, and joint work on current clinical challenges. Over the course of two days, participants are exploring modern approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of acute neurological conditions in children, reviewing clinical cases, and discussing solutions that are directly relevant to everyday practice.
The masterclass program includes lectures, professional discussions, and practical sessions. The topics in focus include autoimmune encephalitis and demyelinating disorders, ischemic stroke in newborns and in the pediatric population, neurocritical care issues, acute cranial nerve disorders, and movement disorders in children with altered consciousness. This format gives participants an opportunity not only to gain new knowledge, but also to compare different clinical approaches and discuss them directly with colleagues.
The intensive pace of the course became clear from the very first sessions. In particular, a lecture by Professor Kevin Rostasy from Germany on autoimmune encephalitis and demyelinating disorders sparked an active professional discussion. This level of engagement, the large number of questions, and the open discussion of clinical decisions are exactly what give such educational events their real value.
The second day of the masterclass continued in the same dynamic format, with new presentations, relevant topics, and lively professional discussion. Participants are actively engaging in conversations, sharing practical experience, and making the most of the opportunity for direct dialogue with Ukrainian and international experts.
Holding this course is an important step for the development of the professional community and for the implementation of European standards in pediatric neurology in Ukraine. For the Kozyavkin Clinic, it is also an opportunity to serve as a space where meaningful professional exchange takes place and cooperation grows among specialists working to improve care for children.
