AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to retrospectively evaluate the efficacy of Li Maneuver as a repositioning maneuver for geotropic HC-BPPV, compared with Gufon Maneuver.
Methods: Data of geotropic HC-BPPV patients treated at our department between January 2009 and January 2020 was retrospectively collected and analyzed. Enrolled cases were divided into Gufoni Group and Li Group. Follow-up results were recorded on the first, third, and seventh day after the first therapeutic maneuver.
Results: A total of 254 cases were enrolled, with 87 cases in Gufoni Group, and 167 cases in Li Group. The cure rate at the first, third, and seventh days of follow-up was 62.22%, 77.01%, and 90.80% respectively for Gufoni Group, while for Li Group the number was 60.48%, 72.46%, and 89.22% respectively. Statistical analysis showed no significant difference.
Conclusions: Li Maneuver for geotropic HC-BPPV was as effective as Gufoni Maneuver but much simpler and faster. By introducing Li Maneuver, we may help physicians to treat geotropic HC-BPPV patients more willingly, which would decrease the chance of delayed treatment and ease the burden of the health-care system.

Gufoni maneuver for treatment of horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo: a systematic review of randomized controlled trials.
Eur Arch Otorhinolaryngol
September 2024
Department of Physiotherapy, Middle East University, Airport Road 1666, Amman, Jordan.
Purpose: This review aims to investigate the effects of the Gufoni maneuver on horizontal semicircular canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (HC-BPPV).
Methods: A comprehensive search, including PubMed, PEDro, REHABDATA, SCOPUS, EMBASE, and Web of Science, was conducted to determine randomized clinical trials (RCTs) studying the effects of the Gufoni maneuver for HC-BPPV from inception to March 1, 2024. The quality of the included studies was estimated using the Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale.

Objective: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficiency of the supine roll test (SRT) and alternative positional tests (APTs) including the bow and lean test (BLT), pseudo-spontaneous nystagmus (PSN), and lying down nystagmus (LDN) to identify the affected side in horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (HC-BPPV).
Methods: In our prospective study, we performed a testing profile (PSN, BLT, LDN, SRT) on 59 HC-BPPV patients using videonystagmography. We compared the accuracy and sensitivity of these tests in HC-BPPV lateralization.

Background: Gufoni maneuver is known to be effective for horizontal canal benign positional vertigo (HC-BPPV), but there are some intractable patients that the treatment procedure does not work.
Objective: The clinical outcomes of patients with HC-BPPV were investigated. We also investigated the characteristics of intractable patients which needed long time to the remission.

Department of Neurology and German Center for Vertigo and Balance Disorders, Hospital of Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, Munich, Germany.
Background And Purpose: Horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the second most common variant of BPPV after posterior canal BPPV. Various liberatory maneuvers are recommended for the treatment of horizontal canal BPPV canalithiasis (hc-BPPV-ca). The aim of this study was to show how three-dimensional (3D) dynamic simulation models visualize the movement of the clot of otoconia within the canal for a better understanding of the theoretical efficacy.
