Prediction of vertigo based on the body condition: -Preliminary report
Abstract
If onset of vertigo could be known before, patients could control the attack. That would be of benefits to those patients. At the NES conference in Bad Kissingen the year before last I showed that vertigo patients with higher heart rate would be sensitive to rapid change in the atmospheric pressure. In order to avoid vertigo attack, do those patients have to be nervous about the weather forecast every day?
Therefore, other easier methods for prediction of vertigo attack should be desirable. Body signs such as chills, shoulder stiffness and so on were paid attention on. In younger patients feelings of shoulder stiffness were one of good indicators for vertigo attack.
