Article Synopsis
- * A total of 386 patients were analyzed using various assessments like the Dizziness Handicap Inventory and Activities-specific Balance Confidence Scale to measure their balance and dizziness levels post-surgery.
- * Findings revealed that 10.10% of patients viewed their balance problems as disabling, with a significant portion experiencing moderate to severe oscillopsia, indicating that balance issues can persist for years after surgery and contribute to disability.
Objective: A strong relationship exists between vestibular dysfunction and anxiety disorders. The aim of this study was to assess the anxiety and depression levels in patients with chronic dizziness and to assess the effects of vestibular rehabilitation (VR) therapy, on the anxiety and depression levels, without a behavioural or pharmacological therapy.
Method: Two groups of 40 patients, each affected by chronic vestibular deficit, were studied.
Objective: To evaluate the efficiency of the rehabilitative protocols in patients with labyrinthine hypofunction, focusing on computerized dynamic visual acuity test (DVAt) and Gaze stabilization test (GST) specifically evaluating the vestibulo-oculomotor reflex (VOR) changes due to vestibular rehabilitation.
Design: Consecutive sample study.
Setting: Day hospital in Ears, Nose, and Throat Rehabilitation Unit.
Objective: The aim of this study is to assess patients' quality of life after acoustic neuroma surgery, and if some patients' characteristics, parameters of tumor and surgical parameters affect patients' quality of life.
Study Design: Retrospective study.
Setting: Tertiary care center.
