Libro Blanco de las ACES Pediátricas 2024 746 ❚ European syllabus concept version March 9 th , 2019, Approved by the full EPNS board - 9(12) - complete a minimum of two years of general paediatric training. Up to one year of training in Paediatric Neurology trunk module can also be counted as paediatric training. In combination with the additional paediatrics year from Paediatric Neurology, training would then satisfy the EAP request of a common paediatric trunk. This syllabus acts as a European guideline. It is suggested that national regulations which deviate substantially from this concept are revised stepwise in order to achieve a common trans-European standard. iii. Adult Neurology As well as learning about the care of younger adults who have moved through transition into the care of adults neurologists, the trainees should learn about the investigation, identification and management of disorders which are relatively common in adult practice and less so in children. Examples of these types of disorders include stroke, immune-mediated diseases, movement disorders and motor neuron diseases. Acute focal lesions where clinical signs correlate accurately with the radiological appearance are more common in the adult population and attachment to an adult service allows the paediatric neurologist to consolidate their ability to extrapolate disease process / location with predicted and evident clinical signs The trainee works in a recognised adult neurology unit with inpatient and outpatient responsibility for patients with neurological diseases. During this training, skills in correlative neuroanatomy and the diagnosis and management of most common and especially acute neurological disorders in adulthood are acquired. It will involve attendance at investigation meetings (e.g. radiology, pathology, and neurophysiology). This module may be integrated with paediatric neurology modules and may include transitional clinics for older teenage patients. In countries in which this module is a challenge, this module could be alternatively done as sessional attachments or half day attendance of (outpatient) clinics instead of a continuous period. Minimal duration 6 months or equivalent. 3.1.B Special fields Some fields of paediatric neurology need special attention during the training- see section 2.1. They are not necessarily subject to any extra time: completion is certified by the training supervisor. The trainee may wish to focus on some of these fields in agreement with the tutor. Some examples are given below, others can be considered: Paediatric neuroimaging Paediatric neurophysiology Paediatric neurometabolic disease Paediatric neuropathology Neurogenetics Neuro(re)habilitation Paediatric neurointensive care Neonatal neurology Paediatric epileptology Paediatric and adolescent Neuropsychiatry
