The caloric test is still the most useful vestibular test by far. Rotatory tests may allow more accurate control of the stimulus and the response parameters may vary less in normal individuals, but only the caloric test allows individual testing of each ear.

Evaluation of the monothermal caloric test
The Laryngoscope, 1989AbstractIn 1970, Torok reported that patients with labyrinthine disease showed vestibular recruitment and that patients with retrolabyrinthine disease showed vestibular decruitment on the monothermal caloric test. Other investigators have failed to confirm these findings; however, their studies did not precisely replicate Torok's test procedure ...

There are many caloric tests; some are simple, some are complex. They vary in accuracy and in the amount of information obtainable. We are all familiar with most of these. There is no reason to discuss them at this time. The test described here is certainly not new (although I have not seen it in the literature) and is probably used by many of us.

Caloric Tests In Deaf Children
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1965T THERE ARE only a few reports in the literature concerning the vestibular reactivity in children that suffer from severe sensorineural impairment of hearing. Shambaugh et al 13 collected, in 1930, information about 5,348 children from schools for the deaf in the US.

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 ...

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.

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".
