Nonlinear Analysis of Sensory Organization Test for Subjects with Unilateral Vestibular Dysfunction
Vestibular disorder is the cause of approximately 50% of dizziness in older people. The vestibular system is a critical postural control mechanism, and posturography analysis is helpful for diagnosing vestibular disorder. In clinical practice, the sensory organization test (SOT) is used to quantify postural control in an upright stance under different test conditions. However, both aging and ve...
متن کاملVestibular rehabilitation for unilateral peripheral vestibular dysfunction.
BACKGROUND Unilateral peripheral vestibular dysfunction (UPVD) can occur as a result of disease, trauma or post-operatively. The dysfunction is characterized by complaints of dizziness, visual or gaze disturbances and balance impairment. Current management includes medication, physical manoeuvres and exercise regimes, the latter known collectively as vestibular rehabilitation (VR). OBJECTIVES...
متن کاملNew clinical tests of unilateral vestibular dysfunction
Vertigo is caused by unilateral vestibular dysfunction. Unilateral vestibular dysfunction represents either vestibular overactivity as benign positional vertigo or underactivity as in labyrinthitis or both, at different times, as in a Ménière’s attack. Unilateral dysfunction could also be central rather than peripheral, such as in a lateral medullary syndrome. Unilateral vestibular dysfunction ...
متن کاملMagnetic Vestibular Stimulation in Subjects with Unilateral Labyrinthine Disorders
We recently discovered that static magnetic fields from high-strength MRI machines induce nystagmus in all normal humans, and that a magneto-hydrodynamic Lorentz force, derived from ionic currents in the endolymph and pushing on the cupula, best explains this effect. Individuals with no labyrinthine function have no nystagmus. The influence of magnetic vestibular stimulation (MVS) in individual...
متن کاملEffects of Vestibular Rehabilitation Interventions in the Elderly with Chronic Unilateral Vestibular Hypofunction
Introduction: Although vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT) methods are relatively popular in treating patients with body balance deficits of vestibular origin, only limited studies have been conducted into customized exercises for unilateral vestibular hypofunction (UVH). Furthermore, very little evidence is available on the outcomes of VRT in the elderly population with chronic UVH. Materi...
