Association between hearing loss and vestibular disorders : a review of the interference of hearing in the balance [PDF]

, 2015
Dizziness is very prevalent and makes a great impact on people’s life. Because of anatomical and functional similarities of hearing and vestibular systems, it is noted that there is a big relation between hearing loss and vestibular disorders.

Refractory episodic vertigo: role of intratympanic gentamicin and vestibular evoked myogenic potentials,

Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology
Introduction: Even today, the treatment of intractable vertigo remains a challenge. Vestibular ablation with intratympanic gentamicin stands as a good alternative in the management of refractory vertigo patients.

The effect of alcohol on cervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in healthy volunteers [PDF]

, 2014
OBJECTIVE: We investigated the effect of alcohol on the cervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMPs and oVEMPs). As alcohol produces gaze-evoked nystagmus (GEN), we also tested the effect of nystagmus independent of alcohol by ...

Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in patients with BPPV [PDF]

Medical Science Monitor, 2011
The probable cause of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is a degeneration of the oto lithic organs (utricle and saccule). The aim of the study is to find possible alterations in Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials (VEMP) recordings in BPPV patients, because the saccule is part of the VEMP pathway.27 BPPV patients (24 unilateral and 3 ...

Influence of gender on the vestibular evoked myogenic potential [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2011
There is no consensus on the relevance of factors that influence gender differences in the behavior of muscles. Some studies have reported a relationship between muscle tension and amplitude of the vestibular evoked myogenic potential; others, that results depend on which muscles are studied or on how much load is applied.This study aims to compare ...

Effect of Auditory Input on Sensory Organization and Fall Risk in Young Adults With Hearing Aids

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The aim of this study was to document postural control, sensory organization, and fall risk parameters of auditory input using computerized post urography in bilaterally hearing‐aided young adults. It was observed that auditory input had a positive contribution to postural control and fall risk in young adult hearing aid users.

Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in the prognosis of sudden hearing loss ‒ a systematic review

Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2020
Introduction: Sudden hearing loss is an otorhinolaryngological emergency that often leads to severe damage to the auditory and vestibular function. The vestibular evoked myogenic potential is a test that allows a noninvasive evaluation of the otolithic ...

Vestibular Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease: A Systematic Review of Signs and Symptoms

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Despite the growing interest in the link between Parkinson's disease (PD) neuropathology and vestibular system, there is still a lack of consensus about the presence of vestibular dysfunctions in PD. Objective This review aims to identify vestibular signs and symptoms reported in PD patients and to summarize and critically appraise ...
