A mechanical rotation chair provides superior diagnostics of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo [PDF]
BackgroundBenign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common vestibular disease. Both therapeutic and diagnostic benefits with mechanical rotation chairs (MRCs) for management of BPPV have been reported.

BackgroundThroughout the last decade, several mechanical rotational chairs have been developed for diagnostics and treatment of patients with a typical case history of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. Sparse evidence, however, exists in terms of diagnostic accuracy and treatment efficiency with these mechanical rotational chairs.

BackgroundBenign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most predominant vestibular disease. Previously, in the management of BPPV, both therapeutic and diagnostic benefits with mechanical rotation chairs (MRCs) have been reported. However, no previous studies have examined the efficacy of MRC treatment with a fairly new MRC.MethodsRandomized ...

Impact of head orientation and head movement in traditional manual diagnostics of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo: a randomized controlled crossover study [PDF]
BackgroundTradititional manual diagnostics of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) include Supine Roll test (SRT) and Dix-Hallpike test (DHT). However, the influence of head orientation and -movement on the diagnostic performance remains unclear ...

Individualized repositioning with a mechanical rotational chair facilitates successful treatment of patients with very retractable benign paroxysmal positional vertigo [PDF]
About 12.5 % of patients diagnosed with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), experience persistent BPPV where it is unknown why some BPPV cases are very refractory (vrBPPV) to treatment.The primary objective was to investigate if patients with vrBPPV could be successfully treated with a mechanical rotation chair (MRC) adjusted to the exact ...

Anatomic Total Shoulder Arthroplasty Using Lesser Tuberosity Osteotomy: Technical Considerations [PDF]
Background: Glenohumeral osteoarthritis (GHO) is a common cause of shoulder pain and dysfunction in middle-aged and older adults. Anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) is the preferred surgical treatment for patients with an intact rotator cuff ...

Introduction: Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) stands as the most common cause of peripheral vertigo. Its treatment with repositioning maneuvers on an examination table is highly effective. However, patients with back or neck problems, paraplegia, or other conditions face challenges with these maneuvers, potentially experiencing longer ...
