State Anxiety Subjective Imbalance and Handicap in Vestibular Schwannoma
INTRODUCTION Evidence is emerging for a significant clinical and neuroanatomical relationship between balance and anxiety. Research has suggested a potentially priming effect with anxiety symptoms predicting a worsening of balance function in patients with underlying balance dysfunction. We propose to show that a vestibular stimulus is responsible for an increase in state anxiety, and there is ...
متن کاملVestibular Function In Vestibular Schwannoma
Introduction: Traditionally vestibular function has been assessed using caloric irrigations; new methods have failed to reach the same level of accuracy. Vestibular nerve dysfunction occurs with 'acoustic neuroma' or 'vestibular schwannoma. Quantitative testing of hearing by audiometry is much more widely available than quantitative vestibular testing, although consideration of vestibular dysfu...
متن کاملVestibular compensation after vestibular schwannoma surgery: normalization of the subjective visual vertical and disability.
CONCLUSIONS The degree of caloric weakness before surgery influences faster or slower recovery of patients undergoing vestibular schwannoma surgery. The Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) is a good index to show the recovery of patients as it relates directly to an improvement or not of the subjective visual vertical (SVV). OBJECTIVE To evaluate the process of recovery of patients as measured...
متن کاملLong-term dizziness handicap in patients with vestibular schwannoma: a multicenter cross-sectional study.
OBJECTIVE (1) To characterize long-term dizziness following observation, microsurgery, and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for small to medium-sized vestibular schwannoma (VS) using a validated self-assessment inventory; and (2) to identify clinical variables associated with long-term dizziness handicap. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional observational study. SETTING Two independent tertiary acad...
متن کاملElectrical Vestibular Stimulation after Vestibular Deafferentation and in Vestibular Schwannoma
BACKGROUND Vestibular reflexes, evoked by human electrical (galvanic) vestibular stimulation (EVS), are utilized to assess vestibular function and investigate its pathways. Our study aimed to investigate the electrically-evoked vestibulo-ocular reflex (eVOR) output after bilateral and unilateral vestibular deafferentations to determine the characteristics for interpreting unilateral lesions suc...
