A Chair-Based Abbreviated Repositioning Maneuver (ChARM) for Fast Treatment of Posterior BPPV [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2019
To assess the effectiveness of a variation of the Epley maneuver, which we have titled "Chair-based Abbreviated Repositioning maneuver (ChARM)", in solving cases of benign positional paroxysmal vertigo (BPPV) of the posterior canal. ChARM addresses multiple issues of highly overloaded medical centers that delay its due and timely resolution.

The Feasibility of Repositioning Ability as a Tool for Ergonomic Evaluation: Effects of Chair Back Inclination and Fatigue on Head Repositioning

open access: yesErgonomics, 2006
Poor posture has been suggested as one of the main factors contributing to the high prevalence of neck pain in video display unit (VDU) users, but no clear association between pain and any particular resting neck posture has been found. Postural awareness of the neck, as indicated by the repositioning accuracy, may therefore be an appropriate measure ...

Individualized Repositioning With a Mechanical Rotational Chair Facilitates Successful Treatment of Patients With Very Retractable Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Medicine and Surgery
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 ...

Repositioning Chairs in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo - A Systematic Review.

open access: yesJournal of International Advanced Otology, 2021
Multi-axial repositioning chairs such as the TRV chair and the Epley Omniax Rotator (EO) are newer alternatives in the treatment of complex and recurrent cases of the common peripheral vertigo disorder, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). The objective of this systematic review is to collect and synthesize current knowledge on the clinical ...

Analysis of Sliding and Pressure Distribution During a Repositioning of Persons in a Simulator Chair

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2001
This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of system tilt and back recline angles on sliding and pressure distribution of seated subjects. Ten able-bodied subjects adopted successively 12 postures on a multiadjustable simulator chair. The system tilt angle was varied from 0 degrees to 45 degrees posterior tilt, while the seat to back angle ...

Adding Kinetic Energy Does Not Further Improve Treatment Outcomes With a Mechanical Reposition Chair: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Otology & Neurotology, 2023
Objective To test if the addition of abrupt deaccelerations (kinetic energy) during treatment with a mechanical repositional chair (MRC) provides improved treatment efficacy with treatment of posterior benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).
