Head‐Up Sleep May Cure Patients With Intractable Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo: A six‐Month Randomized Trial

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 353-358, June 2019., 2019
Objectives The aim of the present study was to assess head‐position management for intractable idiopathic benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) when lying down. We hypothesized that head‐up sleep (HUS) could prevent free‐floating otoliths from entering the semicircular canals.
