Ep 13. Central Sensitization Algorithm
In this episode, Dr. Dan and Justine introduce their 'Central Sensitization Algorithm' designed to help healthcare providers diagnose and treat central sensitization and related neuroinflammatory disorders more effectively. The algorithm categorizes symptoms into distinct buckets of nervous system dysfunction, allowing providers to more quickly and efficiently identify and prioritize their treatment plan. By addressing potential pre-existing diagnosis and symptoms, the sensitization algorithm aims to better streamline assessments and improve outcomes for complex patients by creating a clearer picture of an otherwise confusing presentation. The episode highlights the importance of this tool in reducing diagnostic frustration and inadvertent harm, while also empowering patients to better understand and communicate their symptoms.
