The canalith repositioning maneuver (CRP) of Epley is an effective treatment for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). While CRP has been advocated by some as a “single treatment” for BPPV, others have had less uniform results for this self-limited disorder. In order to better define the role of CRP in relieving vertigo, we studied the time course of recovery in 27 consecutive cases of BPPV. We recorded nystagmus after each head maneuver and at each evaluation until complete resolution took place, using absence of nystagmus as a strict criterion for cure. We found that while 93% of patients improved, many had persistent nystagmus at the first evaluation, and in only 63% was resolution clearly related to a CRP session. We believe that in certain cases, the effect of CRP may be due to adaptive conditioning, rather than particle redistribution. 相似文献

Benign positional vertigo without detectable nystagmus 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
OBJECTIVES: To demonstrate that for treatment of benign positional vertigo it is not necessary to identify a positional nystagmus. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective trial of 43 patients with positional vertigo without clinical evidence of positional nystagmus who were treated with a modified canal-repositioning maneuver. METHODS: Results were compared with the results obtained in the treatment of posterior semicircular cupolo-canalithiasis with typical positional nystagmus with the same repositioning maneuver. RESULTS: Treatment of 43 patients with positional vertigo without positional nystagmus resulted in a 60.46% (26/43) complete recovery rate and a 6% (3/43) persistence of disorder rate compared with a 90% complete recovery rate obtained in 90 patients with typical benign positional paroxysmal vertigo (with positional nystagmus). CONCLUSIONS: What is attempted by this work is to confirm that through clinical evaluation based on history and positioning tests alone, one can obtain acceptable results in treatment of supposed canalithiasis without having detected the pathognomonic nystagmus. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the occurrence of benign paroxysmal positional nystagmus in subjects undergoing treatment with potentially ototoxic medications. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective and retrospective record reviews. SETTING: Tertiary referral neurotology clinic; clinical research and technology center. SUBJECTS: Ninety-nine hospitalized subjects undergoing treatment of infectious disease or carcinoma with potentially ototoxic medications. INTERVENTIONS: Records review, tests of vestibular function. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Results of Hallpike positional tests for benign paroxysmal positional nystagmus (electro-oculography). RESULTS: Forty-one (41%) of 99 subjects were female and 58 (59%) were male. Age range was 15 to 73 years (mean, 47 years). Forty-nine (50%) of 99 subjects had an unequivocally positive Hallpike test for benign paroxysmal positional nystagmus in one or both ears. The occurrence of benign paroxysmal positional nystagmus in the Hallpike-positive population was distributed equally across age decades. Of the 49 subjects with benign paroxysmal positional nystagmus, 22 (44%) were female and 27 (56%) were male. CONCLUSIONS: Benign paroxysmal positional nystagmus is the most common cause of vertigo in the general population, including subjects receiving ototoxic drugs. Complaints of vertigo in subjects receiving ototoxic drugs therefore may or may not indicate onset of ototoxicity. Occurrence of benign paroxysmal positional nystagmus in subjects receiving ototoxic drugs was independent of gender or age. The high occurrence rate of benign paroxysmal positional nystagmus in subjects receiving potentially ototoxic medications is consistent with the observation that benign paroxysmal positional nystagmus occurs in combination with many pathologic conditions. Benign paroxysmal positional nystagmus presenting in subjects receiving ototoxic drugs may complicate the clinical identification of ototoxicity and obfuscate clinical decision-making processes. 相似文献

IntroductionSubjective benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is a form of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo in which during the diagnostic positional maneuvers patients only present vertigo symptoms with no nystagmus.ObjectiveTo study the characteristics of subjects with subjective benign paroxysmal positional vertigo.MethodsProspective multicenter case-control study. All patients presenting with vertigo in the Dix-Hallpike test that presented to the participating hospitals were included. The patients were separated into two groups depending on whether nystagmus was present or not. An Epley Maneuver of the affected side was performed. In the follow-up visit, patients were checked to see if nystagmus and vertigo were present. Both groups of patients were compared to assess the success rate of the Epley maneuver and also to compare the presence of 19 variables.Results259 patients were recruited, of which 64 belonged to the subjective group. Nystagmus was eliminated in 67.2% of the patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. 89.1% of the patients with subjective benign paroxysmal positional vertigo remained unaffected by nystagmus, thus showing a significant difference (p = 0.001). Osteoporosis and migraine were the variables which reached the closest to the significance level. In those patients who were taking vestibular suppressors, the percentage of subjective benign paroxysmal positional vertigo was not significantly higher.ConclusionsSubjective benign paroxysmal positional vertigo should be treated using the Epley maneuver. More studies are needed to establish a relationship between osteoporosis, migraine and subjective benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. The use of vestibular suppressants does not affect the detection of nystagmus. 相似文献

IntroductionMulti-canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is considered to be a rare and controversial type in the new diagnostic guidelines of Bárány because the nystagmus is more complicated or atypical, which is worthy of further study.ObjectiveBased on the diagnostic criteria for multi-canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo proposed by International Bárány Society, the study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of multi-canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo.MethodsA total of 41 patients with multi-canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo were included and diagnosed by Roll, Dix-Hallpike and straight head hanging tests. Manual reduction was performed according to the involvement of semicircular canals.ResultsAmong the 41 cases, 19 (46.3%) patients showed vertical up-beating nystagmus with or without torsional component and geotropic, apogeotropic horizontal nystagmus, and were diagnosed with posterior-horizontal canal. 11 (26.8%) patients showed vertical up-beating nystagmus with torsional component on one side and vertical down-beating nystagmus with or without torsional component on the other side during Dix-Hallpike test or straight head hanging test and were diagnosed with posterior-anterior canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo 9 (26.8%) patients showed vertical down-beating nystagmus with or without torsional component and geotropic, apogeotropic horizontal nystagmus, and were diagnosed with anterior-horizontal canal 2 (4.9%) patients showed vertical geotropic torsional up-beating nystagmus on both sides and were diagnosed with bilateral posterior canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. High correlation between the sides with reduced vestibular function or hearing loss and the side affected by Multi-canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo was revealed (contingency coefficient = 0.602, p = 0.010). During one-week follow up, nystagmus/vertigo has been significantly alleviated or disappeared in 87.8% (36/41) patients.ConclusionPosterior-horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo was the most common type. Multi-canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo involving anterior canal was also not uncommon. Caloric tests and pure tone audiometry may help in the determination of the affected side. Manual reduction was effective in most of Multi-canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo patients. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is characterized by horizontal direction-changing nystagmus induced by lateral head turning in supine position. According to Ewald's second law, the direction of head turning that creates a stronger response represents the affected side in geotropic nystagmus and the healthy side in apogeotropic nystagmus. However, it may not always be possible to lateralize the involved ear only by comparing the intensity of the nystagmus. We studied the values of nystagmus induced by position change from sitting to supine in the lateralization of horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. METHODS: A retrospective study of 54 patients who had been diagnosed as having horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo at the Dizziness Clinic of Seoul National University Bundang Hospital from May 2003 to February 2004 was performed. The directions of the nystagmus induced by lying down were compared with those determined by Ewald's second law. RESULTS: Of the 54 patients, 32 (20 apogeotropic and 12 geotropic) showed horizontal nystagmus induced by lying down. The nystagmus tended to be ipsilesional in apogeotropic patients (80%) and contralesional in their geotropic counterparts (75%). CONCLUSION: In horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, lying-down nystagmus mostly beats toward the involved ear in the apogeotropic type and directs to the healthy ear in the geotropic type. The direction of lying-down nystagmus may help lateralizing the involved ear in horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To study the immediate efficacy of the canalith repositioning procedure (CRP) in the treatment of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. PATIENTS: Thirty-four patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. INTERVENTION: Eighteen patients were treated with CRP (CRP group); 16 control patients did not receive CRP treatment (non-CRP group). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: We compared the success rates of the CRP and non-CRP groups. The treatment was considered successful if it prevented vertigo and dizziness. Patients were evaluated 3 times: immediately posttreatment (the day after the first visit), in the short term (1 wk after treatment), and in the midterm (1 mo after treatment). RESULTS: Successful outcomes occurred in 12 patients (67%) from the CRP group and in 1 patient (6%) from the non-CRP group as immediate results (p < 0.001), 13 (72%) and 4 patients (25%) in the short term, respectively, (p = 0.007), and 16 (89%) and 14 patients (88%) in the midterm, respectively, (p > 0.05). Among patients in the CRP group who did not report immediate success, 1 patient (6%) reported success after 1 week (short term), and 4 patients (67%) had successful outcomes after 1 month (midterm). CONCLUSION: The immediate efficacy of CRP supported the canalolithiasis theory. The prognosis of patients with immediate unsuccessful results with CRP was somewhat worse than that for patients without CRP treatment. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate and compare the efficacy of the Semont liberatory maneuver on "objective" benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) defined as vertigo with geotropic nystagmus in Dix-Hallpike positioning versus "subjective" BPPV defined as vertigo without nystagmus in Dix-Hallpike positioning. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective chart review. METHODS: One hundred sixty-two patients with positional vertigo during Dix- Hallpike positioning were identified. Patients were evaluated for the presence or absence of nystagmus. All patients underwent the Semont liberatory maneuver. The patient's condition at follow-up was documented at 3 weeks as complete, partial, or failure. Repeated procedures were performed if necessary. RESULTS: There were 127 cases of objective BPPV and 35 cases of subjective BPPV. Overall, 90% of all patients tested had significant improvement of their vertigo after 1.49 maneuvers on average. Improvement was seen in 91% of patients with objective BPPV after 1.59 maneuvers on average, compared with 86% in subjective BPPV after 1.13 maneuvers on average (chi2 test, not significant [P = .5]). Patients with a history of traumatic origin or cause had an overall success rate of 81% compared with 92% for nontraumatic causes or origins (chi2 test, not significant [P = .1]). Recurrences were seen in 29% of patients after a successful initial maneuver; however, 96% of these patients responded to further maneuvers. Four patients with persistent symptoms after conservative management underwent posterior semicircular canal occlusion with resolution of symptoms. CONCLUSION: The Semont liberatory maneuver provides relief of vertigo in patients with positional vertigo, even in patients without objective nystagmus. 相似文献

Conclusions: Objective benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (O-BPPV) and subjective BPPV (S-BPPV) have similar demographic and clinical features. Canalith repositioning manoeuvres (CRMs) can be an effective treatment for patients with S-BPPV, and a diagnosis of positional nystagmus is not essential for considering CRMs. This study supports the use of CRMs as the primary treatment for S-BPPV.Objective: To examine differences in demographic and clinical features, as well as treatment outcomes, between O-BPPV and S-BPPV.Methods: The medical records of 134 patients with BPPV were reviewed for demographic characteristics, past medical history, associated symptoms, response to CRMs, interval between symptom onset and the first medical visit, and recurrence rate. The O-BPPV group (n?=?101) comprised patients who experienced vertigo and accompanying autonomic symptoms, and showed typical nystagmus. The S-BPPV group (n?=?33) comprised patients who, when subjected to a provoking manoeuvre, showed all of the classic BPPV symptoms but did not show nystagmus. All patients had at least 3 years of follow-up.Results: The demographics (age and sex ratio), past medical history, and associated symptoms were not significantly different between the two groups. Posterior semi-circular canal BPPV appeared more than twice as often as horizontal semi-circular canal BPPV in patients with S-BPPV. However, both canals were affected to a similar proportion in patients with O-BPPV, and the difference was marginally significant (p?=?0.073). Overall improvement was better in O-BPPV than in S-BPPV; however, there was no significant difference. The total numbers of manoeuvres for recovery and the interval between symptom onset and the first medical visit also did not show any significant inter-group differences. During a 3-year follow-up, the recurrence rate was 13.8% for O-BPPV and 21.2% for S-BPPV. 相似文献

After stapedectomy otoliths were displaced from the endolymphatic space to the cupula of the posterior semicircular canal and caused a paroxysmal benign positional nystagmus which lasted 18 months. The positional nystagmus demonstrated a rotatory component during the Hallpike manoeuvre. The paroxysmal benign nystagmus disappeared after transtympanic nerve neurectomy of the inferior branch of the vestibular nerve (Gacek 1974). This procedure is only recommended for vertigo lasting longer than 1 year. The current findings support the theory that cupulolithiasis is the cause of paroxysmal benign positional nystagmus which can occur after stapedectomy. The rotatory nystagmus is generated in the posterior semicircular canal. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a new physical maneuver in the treatment of the apogeotropic variant of horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. STUDY DESIGN: Case review. SETTING: Outpatient clinic. PATIENTS: The diagnosis of apogeotropic horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo was based on the history of recurrent sudden crisis of vertigo associated with bursts of horizontal apogeotropic paroxysmal nystagmus provoked by turning the head from the supine to either lateral position. The patients were three men and five women ranging in age from 31 to 73 years (average, 49.2 yr). INTERVENTIONS: All patients were treated with a repositioning maneuver based on the hypothesis that the syndrome is caused by the presence of free-floating dense particles inside the endolymph of the anterior arm of the horizontal canal. The maneuver favors their shifting into the posterior arm of the canal. Patients were reexamined immediately after the treatment and underwent Gufoni's liberatory maneuver for the geotropic variant of horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: The treatment outcome was considered as responsive when, after one repositioning maneuver, nystagmus shifted from apogeotropic to geotropic. RESULTS: The repositioning maneuver resulted in a transformation from the apogeotropic variant into a geotropic variant of horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo in all patients. CONCLUSION: This maneuver represents a simple and effective approach to the treatment of the apogeotropic variant of horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. It favors the shifting of the canaliths from the anterior into the posterior arm of the horizontal canal from where they can migrate into the utricle with Gufoni's maneuver. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: The objective was to determine whether the inclusion of vibration and additional treatment cycles has an effect on short- and long-term success rates in the treatment of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo with the canalith repositioning maneuver. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective randomized study of patients treated at a tertiary vestibular rehabilitation center. METHODS: Variables identified for statistical analysis included patient age, gender, vibration used, and canalith repositioning cycles. Analysis using Student t test, chi2 test, Kaplan-Meier curves with log rank test, and Cox proportional hazards regression was performed. RESULTS: One hundred two patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo treated over a 1-year period (August 2001-August 2002) were randomly assigned to receive the canalith repositioning maneuver with or without vibration. Average duration of follow-up was 9.44 months. The single treatment success rate was 93.1%. To relieve symptoms, 29.4% of patients required more than one canalith repositioning cycle. The relapse rate was 30.5%. Thirty-nine patients were assigned to the canalith repositioning group with vibration, and 63 to the canalith repositioning group without vibration. There was no statistical difference in age, gender, initial success rates, or relapse rates between the canalith repositioning groups with and without vibration. On average, patients required 1.38 canalith repositioning cycles for successful treatment. Vibration did not affect the number of canalith repositioning cycles required to convert the Dix-Hallpike test result to normal. The need for additional canalith repositioning cycles had no statistical effect on initial treatment success or relapse rates. CONCLUSION: Vibration provided no additional benefit in initial treatment success or in reducing long-term relapse rates when included in the canalith repositioning maneuver. Many patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo require more than one canalith repositioning cycle at the time of initial treatment to relieve symptoms, but this does not indicate a higher likelihood for recurrence. No variable predicted a higher rate of recurrence. 相似文献
