Disability in patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo with posterior semicircular canal involvement [Discapacidad en pacientes con vértigo posicional paroxístico benigno del canal semicircular posterior]

Objective: The aim of this work is to analyze the vestibular function and level of disability in two populations of patients with positional vertigo but with differents results in the Dix-Hallpike test. Material and Methods: 114 patients were assessed. In 65 the Dix-Hallpike test was positive (DH+)...

Pérez Fernández, N. R Medicina (General) Objective: The aim of this work is to analyze the vestibular function and level of disability in two populations of patients with positional vertigo but with differents results in the Dix-Hallpike test. Material and Methods: 114 patients were assessed. In 65 the Dix-Hallpike test was positive (DH+) and in 49 negative (DH). The caloric test was performed as well as the assessment of disability with the pertinent questionnaires for vestibular disability. Results: Patients in the DH+ group showed a higher level of disabilty in the physical subscale of the DHI and a higher perception of a deteriorated quality of life. Patients in the DH- group showed a more severe disability in the emotional subscale of the DHI. Conclusions: Once the phenomenon of nystagmus fatigability is ruled out, patients with positional vertigo and DH- must not be considered a minor form of positional vertigo. 2003-12-31 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess application/pdf spa http://pa.bibdigital.ucc.edu.ar/3970/1/A_Gonz%C3%A1lezdelPino_P%C3%A9rezFern%C3%A1ndez.pdf González del Pino, B. and Pérez Fernández, N.
