know as well as possess the necessary skills to perform neurological tests in the fields of neurology, neurosurgery and critical care;

have acquired the ability to efficiently carry out extracranial and transcranial Doppler ultrasonography, electromyography, intraoperative neuro-monitoring and monitoring for the detection of brain death in the ICU implementing evidence-based safety practices;

be familiar with technical and scientific terminology so as to understand patients’ clinical records and test results including medical prescriptions and detailed ward reports;

know how to plan alongside the doctor and/or interdisciplinary team specific neurophysiological tests needed during an operation, in the ICU or when performing experimental neurophysiological studies;

have acquired the ability to analyze, interpret and use mathematical and statistical techniques relevant to neurophysiological testing;

Practice test and simulated neurophysiological testing; in-training evaluation and feedback by means of assessment tools that measure attitudes, behaviors and practical and professional clinical skills.

The Final Mark will be expressed in thirties. Objective competency-based assessment methods must be considered as part of any system of in-training evaluation and include written examinations, objective structured clinical examinations as well as practical field training. Students must receive a passing score for each training module.
