Ear and Hearing, 1986
The standard ABB remains the most popular test of vestibular function. The use of air caloric irrigations or the closed loop water system seem to be scientifically sound alternatives to the use of open water irrigation. Although controversy still surrounds the use of monothermal warm calorics as a screening test, several studies have shown its ...

Comparison between caloric and video-head impulse tests in Ménière’s disease and vestibular neuritis
International Journal of Audiology, 2022Objective To compare the diagnostic accuracies of air caloric testing with electronystagmography and the vHIT (video-head impulse test). Design Prospective, controlled study.

A microbiological hazard in caloric testing
British Journal of Audiology, 1991The use of caloric testing is widespread in hospital audiology departments. This paper describes contamination of the caloric water tanks with the organism Acinetobacter anitratus and the changes in practice instituted to eliminate this risk to patients.

A Protocol for the Air Caloric Test and a Comparison With a Standard Water Caloric Test
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1979This communication describes the development of a protocol for the air caloric stimulus for vestibular testing. The protocol is based on matching the peak responses of air and water caloric stimuli and minimizing subject discomfort. Air stimulus temperatures of 30 and 44 degrees C are used, and these appear to minimize subject complaints of pain with ...

The minimal ice water caloric test compared with established vestibular caloric test procedures
Journal of Vestibular Research, 2005Caloric testing of the vestibular labyrinth is usually performed by classical caloric test procedures (CCTP) using water warmed to 30°C and 44°C. Ice water irrigation (4°C) is usually not performed, although it might be useful as a bedside test. To verify the validity of the Minimal Ice Water Caloric Test (MIWCT), comparative video-oculographic ...

The air caloric test is favoured because of the advantage of higher convenience for patient and operator and its applicability in situations where water is contradicted. We examined 20 normal subjects with air (60 s, 12 min, 45 degrees/29 degrees C) and 25 with water (30 s, 30 cm3, 44 degrees/30 degrees C) caloric test.

A Simple Quantitative Caloric Test
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1958In a recent article, Hitschler 2 described a simple caloric test in which he used water at a constant temperature (36-37 F) for a definite period of time (5 seconds). He stated that the time during which the water is in contact with the eardrum is the important factor, not the amount of water, and that severe reactions are uncommon in this procedure ...

Caloric Vestibular Test with the Use of Air
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1979In a group of 28 test subjects the vestibular caloric test was performed with the aid of two different methods. In the first method the ears were irrigated for 30 sec with water with a temperature of 30 C and 44 C, in the second method the ears were subjected to an airstream with a temperature of 30 C and 44 C and later on with an airstream with a ...

Caloric test with oculogyral illusion as response
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1977It has been demonstrated that the caloric test can be simplified further by making use of the oculogyral illusion. Since the test is conducted under conditions of optic fixation, this method probably also enhances the sensitivity of the caloric test. The reproducibility of the tests also appears high, at least in respect of measures of "canal paresis".
