Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how hearing loss (HL) might influence the risk of falls in adults with vestibular dysfunction or nonvestibular dizziness compared to those without dizziness.
- Researchers analyzed data from 2,750 patients evaluated in a vestibular clinic, categorizing them into various diagnostic groups and including a control group without dizziness.
- The findings suggest that patients with bilateral vestibular hypofunction (BVH) and central dysfunction reported the highest rates of falls, highlighting a potential connection between HL, dizziness, and fall risk.
Objective: To determine relationships between caloric testing (CT) and video head impulse testing (vHIT) among patients with unilateral vestibular schwannoma (VS). To describe the distribution of CT and vHIT measurements and assess associations with tumor size and self-perceived handicapping effects.
Study Design: Retrospective review.
