Nina Bozanic Urbancic, Soumit Dasgupta, Josine Widdershoven, Leen Maes, Georgios Korres

Description: vestibular disorders in children are more common than previously thought. This session aims to educate the audience about the prevalence, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of vestibular dysfunction in the pediatric population

Outcome Objectives: . This session will offer practical tips and advice in how to recognize vestibular disorders in children, how to diagnose them, and how to treat them most effectively.

Background: over the past decade more attention has been given to children suffering from vestibular and balance problems. Recently, the IPBN (International Pediatric Balance Network) was founded to bring clinicians and scientists worldwide together to optimise care for these patients. The speakers for this session are board members of the IPBN: Leen Maes, professor in audiology at Ghent University (Belgium); Soumit Dasgupta, neurotologist and audiovestibular physician at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital (UK) and Josine Widdershoven, pediatric otorhinolaryngologist at Maastricht University Medical Center (the Netherlands).
