Minimal stimulus strategy for diagnosis and treatment of BPPV: a virtual simulation study.

Background: Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is a common vestibular disorder typically diagnosed and treated through head movements, which can cause discomfort for patients. More importantly, a significant cause of treatment failure is the patient's inability to tolerate these maneuvers.

Objective: To improve patient comfort while maintaining clinical efficacy, this study proposes a Minimal Stimulation Strategy (MSS), utilizing a modified Gufoni maneuver an immediate modified Epley maneuver for BPPV diagnosis and treatment.
