Recognize the clinical features of encephalitis. 3. Be able to conduct a diagnostic investigation of a patient with encephalitis by using clinical and laboratory criteria. 4. Know the anticipated clinical course of different types of encephalitis. 5. Be familiar with the modalities used to treat encephalitis. 6. Understand the factors that influence the outcome in a patient who has encephalitis.
