Neuro-otological found 29.7% cases. 79.7% cases show Fukuda test. SP > AP 9.4% EchoG. 67.1% Romberg Dix-Hallpike 31.2% Conclusion In conclusion, history testing aid vertigo, but they cannot relied on if complex. Only symptomatic helpful like simple unilateral posterior canal BPPV, complex case tinnitus, aural fullness, positivity, or we need assistance additional investigations such as ECochG VNG.
