Compensation Following Bilateral Vestibular Damage
Bilateral loss of vestibular inputs affects far fewer patients than unilateral inner ear damage, and thus has been understudied. In both animal subjects and human patients, bilateral vestibular hypofunction (BVH) produces a variety of clinical problems, including impaired balance control, inability to maintain stable blood pressure during postural changes, difficulty in visual targeting of imag...
متن کاملVestibular Perception following Acute Unilateral Vestibular Lesions
Little is known about the vestibulo-perceptual (VP) system, particularly after a unilateral vestibular lesion. We investigated vestibulo-ocular (VO) and VP function in 25 patients with vestibular neuritis (VN) acutely (2 days after onset) and after compensation (recovery phase, 10 weeks). Since the effect of VN on reflex and perceptual function may differ at threshold and supra-threshold accele...
متن کاملWalking performance of vestibular-defective patients before and after unilateral vestibular neurotomy.
The present study investigated goal-directed linear locomotion in nine Menière's patients before and after (1 week, 1 and 3 months) a curative unilateral vestibular neurotomy (UVN). Experiments were done using a 3D motion analysis system in subjects walking eyes open (EO) and eyes closed (EC) towards a real or memorized target, respectively. Locomotor pattern (velocity, step length, step freque...
متن کاملEffects of acetyl-DL-leucine in vestibular patients: a clinical study following neurotomy and labyrinthectomy.
For 40 years, the amino acid acetyl-DL-leucine (or isoleucine - Tanganil) has been used in clinical practice to reduce imbalance and autonomic manifestations associated with acute vertigo crises. In animal models, acetyl-DL-leucine accelerates vestibular compensation following unilateral labyrinthectomy, and has only minor effects on normal vestibular function. Our work in animal models suggest...
متن کاملVestibular Deficits Following Concussion.
Investigators from the Division of Emergency Medicine, Sports Medicine, and Department of Pediatrics, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, PA, and Sports Medicine, Somerset, NJ, performed a retrospective cohort study of 247 patients ages 5-18 years with concussion referred from July 2010 to Dec 2011; 81% of patients showed a vestibular abnormality on initial clinical examination.
