Using Inertial Sensors to Quantify Postural Sway and Gait Performance during the Tandem Walking Test
Sensors, 2019 Vestibular dysfunction typically manifests as postural instability and gait irregularities, in part due to inaccuracies in processing spatial afference. In this study, we have instrumented the tandem walking test with multiple inertial sensors to easily ...

Impaired Duration Perception in Patients With Unilateral Vestibulopathy During Whole-Body Rotation
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2022 This study aimed to evaluate vestibular perception in patients with unilateral vestibulopathy. We recruited 14 patients (9 women, mean age = 59.3 ± 14.3) with unilateral vestibulopathy during the subacute or chronic stage (disease duration = 6 days to 25

When the Room Is Spinning: Experience of Vestibular Neuritis by a Neurotologist
Frontiers in Neurology, 2020 Vestibular neuritis (VN) is the most common cause of acute prolonged spontaneous vertigo, and is characterized by acute unilateral vestibular hypofunction, probably due to inflammation of the vestibular nerve. VN is diagnosed at the bedside when there is

The relationship between motor proficiency, bilateral vestibular hypofunction and dynamic visual acuity in children with congenital or early acquired sensorineural hearing loss [PDF]
, 2010 Includes bibliographical references (leaves 105-115).The functional integrity of the vestibular system in children is not often tested. Due to the close relationship between the cochlea and the peripheral vestibular system, the function of the vestibular

Magnetic Vestibular Stimulation in Subjects with Unilateral Labyrinthine Disorders
Frontiers in Neurology, 2014 We recently discovered that static magnetic fields from high-strength MRI machines induce nystagmus in all normal humans, and that a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Lorentz force, derived from ionic currents in the endolymph and pushing on the cupula, best ...
