2. Vestibular function assessment in sudden hearing loss
Abstract Objectives: To perform vestibular assessment using cervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential, video head impulse test and caloric testing in patients with sudden hearing loss. Moreover, to evaluate the correlation of dizziness with vestibular tests and the correlation of vestibular tests with hearing prognosis. Methods: This is an o

3. Effectiveness of galvanic vestibular evoked myogenic potential for evaluation of Meniere’s disease
Abstract Objectives: Although the cause of Meniere’s disease (MD) is not fully understood, endolymphatic hydrops is widely believed to be responsible for MD. Previous studies have used Air-Conducted Sound (ACS)-induced Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials (VEMPs) to evaluate otolithic function in patients with MD. However, the use of Galvanic Vestibular

4. Intratympanic Gentamicin for Intractable Ménière’s Disease - A Review and Analysis of Audiovestibular Impact
Abstract Introduction Intratympanic gentamicin regulates the symptoms in most patients with incapacitating Ménière’s disease. The treatment protocols have changed over the years from medical labyrinthectomy to preservation of vestibular function. Objectives This study aims to review the audiovestibular response related to the effect of the drug in co

5. The Video Head Impulse Test in a Case of Suspected Bilateral Loss of Vestibular Function
Introduction A patient who had no symptoms suggestive of bilateral loss of vestibular function presented no responses in rotational and caloric tests. Objectives To demonstrate the importance of the video head impulse test in neurootologic diagnosis. Resumed Report This patient had a neuro-otologic evaluation and presented no responses in torsion swing

6. Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials and digital vectoelectronystagmography's study in patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo
INTRODUCTION: Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is a very common vestibular disorder characterized by brief but intense attacks of rotatory vertigo triggered by simple rapid movement of the head. The integrity of the vestibular pathways can be assessed using tests such as digital vectoelectronystagmography (VENG) and vestibular evoked myogenic pote

7. Vector Electronystagmography Analysis in Elderly Individuals with Dizziness Complaint
Introduction Vector electronystagmography is widely used to evaluate vestibular function; however, elderly patients may show changes not due to vestibular disorders. Aim This study aims to characterize vector electronystagmography tests in the elderly participants in a service station of the Brazilian public health system, the Unified Health System

8. Vestibular function evaluation by subjective visual vertical in patients with Parkinsons disease / Avaliação da função vestibular através da vertical visual subjetiva em pacientes com doença de Parkinson
Introduction: Postural instability is a late manifestation of Parkinsons disease (PD). The impairment of postural responses on PD is probably the most important cause of falls. These postural responses depend on vestibular, somatossensorial and visual inputs, and they are integrated on basal ganglia, brainstem and spinal cord. By use of the subjective visual

9. A PrÃtica Docente nos Cursos prÃ-vestibulares
This research has the fundamental purpose to characterize the teaching practice in non scholar establishments called cursos prÃ-vestibulares ou âcursinhosâ. Considering indispensable to this characterization to approach teaching itself as much as the space where it takes place, its theoretical support comprises three levels: the debate on the function of

10. OTONEUROLOGIC FINDINGS IN A TYPE 1 DIABETIC MELLITUS POPULATION / ACHADOS OTONEUROLÓGICOS EM INDIVÍDUOS PORTADORES DE DIABETES MELLITUS TIPO 1
Este estudo foi desenvolvido com o objetivo de investigar o aparelho vestibular em uma população de indivíduos portadores de Diabetes mellitus tipo 1, justificando-se sua realização pela estreita relação existente entre os distúrbios metabólicos e as alterações vestibulares e/ou auditivas e a grande prevalência destes distúrbios na população e

11. Modern vestibular function testing.
Current tests of vestibular function concentrate on the horizontal semicircular canal-ocular reflex because it is the easiest reflex to stimulate (calorically and rotationally) and record (using electro-oculography). Tests of the other vestibulo-ocular reflexes (vertical semicircular canal and otolith) and of the vestibulospinal reflexes have yet to be shown
