Postural Compensation for Unilateral Vestibular Loss
Postural control of upright stance was investigated in well-compensated, unilateral vestibular loss (UVL) subjects compared to age-matched control subjects. The goal was to determine how sensory weighting for postural control in UVL subjects differed from control subjects, and how sensory weighting related to UVL subjects' functional compensation, as assessed by standardized balance and dizzine...
متن کاملTorsional optokinetic nystagmus after unilateral vestibular loss: asymmetry and compensation.
The aim of this study was to analyse torsional optokinetic nystagmus (tOKN) in 17 patients with Menière's disease before and after (1 week, 1 month and 3 months) a curative unilateral vestibular neurotomy (UVN). The tOKN was investigated during optokinetic stimulations around the line of sight directed towards either the lesioned or the healthy side, at various constant angular velocities. Dyna...
متن کاملMultimodal integration after unilateral labyrinthine lesion: single vestibular nuclei neuron responses and implications for postural compensation.
Plasticity in neuronal responses is necessary for compensation following brain lesions and adaptation to new conditions and motor learning. In a previous study, we showed that compensatory changes in the vestibuloocular reflex (VOR) following unilateral vestibular loss were characterized by dynamic reweighting of inputs from vestibular and extravestibular modalities at the level of single neuro...
متن کاملUnilateral Vestibular Loss Impairs External Space Representation
The vestibular system is responsible for a wide range of postural and oculomotor functions and maintains an internal, updated representation of the position and movement of the head in space. In this study, we assessed whether unilateral vestibular loss affects external space representation. Patients with Menière's disease and healthy participants were instructed to point to memorized targets i...
متن کاملEvaluation of postural control in unilateral vestibular hypofunction.
INTRODUCTION Patients with vestibular hypofunction, a typical finding in peripheral vestibular disorders, show body balance alterations. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the postural control of patients with vertigo and unilateral vestibular hypofunction. METHOD This is a clinical cross-sectional study. Twenty-five patients with vertigo and unilateral vestibular hypofunction and a homogeneous control ...
