The active head-impulse test in unilateral peripheral vestibulopathy.
BACKGROUND The head-impulse test, which is sensitive and specific for detecting severe unilateral peripheral vestibulopathy, is an accepted part of the neurological examination, especially in patients with vertigo and balance disorders. OBJECTIVE To discover if the head-impulse test is just as useful diagnostically when patients are asked to rotate their own heads, the active head-impulse tes...
متن کاملCaloric Test versus Rotational Chair Test in Patients with Peripheral Vestibulopathy
OBJECTIVE: 1) To correlate caloric results with sinusoidal and step-velocity rotary chair gain, phase, asymmetry and time constant values in all patients; 2) To evaluate sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of both tests in patients with vestibular dizziness. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective case review. SETTING: Academic tertiary care vestibular function...
متن کاملThe video head impulse test: diagnostic accuracy in peripheral vestibulopathy.
BACKGROUND The head impulse test (HIT) is a useful bedside test to identify peripheral vestibular deficits. However, such a deficit of the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) may not be diagnosed because corrective saccades cannot always be detected by simple observation. The scleral search coil technique is the gold standard for HIT measurements, but it is not practical for routine testing or for ac...
متن کاملFoam Posturography: A Cheaper Way to Analyze Postural Stability in Peripheral Vestibular Disorders
Methods: The study included 62 patients with peripheral vestibulopathy (unilateral n:41, bilateral n:21) and 45 healthy controls. Neurological and neurotological examinations including tonal audiometry, caloric tests and static posturography [mean center of gravity (COG) sway velocity, shift in COG alignment, tandem walk (step width, walking speed, and end sway velocity)] were performed in all ...
