Can Postural Instability Respond to Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation in Patients with Parkinson's Disease?
OBJECTIVE Galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) activates the vestibular afferents, and these changes in vestibular input exert a strong influence on the subject's posture or standing balance. In patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), vestibular dysfunction might contribute to postural instability and gait disorders. METHODS Current intensity was increased to 0.7 mA, and the current was appl...
متن کاملSomatosensory influence on postural response to galvanic vestibular stimulation.
We investigated how postural responses to galvanic vestibular stimulation were affected by standing on a translating support surface and by somatosensory loss due to diabetic neuropathy. We tested the hypothesis that an unstable surface and somatosensory loss can result in an increase of vestibulospinal sensitivity. Bipolar galvanic vestibular stimulation was applied to subjects who were standi...

25 26 Quadrupeds maintain the dorsal side up body orientation due to the activity of the 27 postural control system driven by limb mechanoreceptors. Binaural galvanic vestibular 28 stimulation (GVS) causes a lateral body sway towards the anode. Previously we have 29 shown that this new position is actively stabilized, suggesting that GVS changes a set30 point in the reflex mechanisms controllin...

متن کاملEffects of galvanic vestibular stimulation on postural limb reflexes and neurons of spinal postural network.
Quadrupeds maintain the dorsal side up body orientation due to the activity of the postural control system driven by limb mechanoreceptors. Binaural galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) causes a lateral body sway toward the anode. Previously, we have shown that this new position is actively stabilized, suggesting that GVS changes a set point in the reflex mechanisms controlling body posture. T...
