Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the incidence of nonorganic sway patterns in patients with potential secondary gain (like lawsuits) against those without such claims.
- A retrospective review was conducted on 100 patients, split into two groups: one with pending claims and one without, utilizing various evaluation methods including computerized dynamic posturography (CDP).
- Results showed that patients with secondary gain were younger, had more normal audiovestibular evaluations, and exhibited a significantly higher rate of nonorganic sway patterns compared to the control group, highlighting the need for clinicians to be cautious when assessing patients with legal or compensation claims.
