From a major group of neurootological patients in our data-bank NODEC IV we have selected a group of patients who had suffered rhino-fronto-basal skull fractures. Some anatomical features lead to the concentration of cranial fractures to the base of the cranial vault. In case a strike hits the head frontally, forces coming from the face […]
Pathology from childhood up to adolescence carries physical, cognitive, motor, linguistic, perceptual, social, emotional and neurosensorial characteristics. Especially the age between the 8th year until the 14th or 15th year of life carry very special traits of a roll-over in the data processing with respect to balance regulation. Neurootological functional data acquisition provides us with […]
Neurootology provides modern medicine with methods of a network analysis from the cranial senses, like for instance from the inner ear towards the central structures of the neuronal data processing and the end projections. Such methods, which we are applying, are summarized under the label Neurootometry, which contains: 1. Equilibriometry 2. Audiometry 3. Gustometry 4. […]
More than 20 years back in occupational medicine we were confronted, that only 2% of the officially accepted occupational hazards are falling accidents. However, 20% of all the fatal occupational hazards, recorded in the Federal Republic of Germany, were occupational falling accidents. The severity of the trauma in the falling accidents has forced the West […]
In Germany tinnitus patients reporting, that their ringing, hissing, bussing, humming etc. noise continuously goes on, are classified as severe disabling tinnitus, when this very much interferes also with their personal and professional life. Therefore these patients can be sent to a stationary rehabilitation therapy for instance in the Nordsee Rehaklinik at St. Peter-Ording, Schleswig-Holstein, […]
In neurootology the complaints of disturbances and failures of the stato-acoustic nerve play an important role. The major groups of complaints comprise vertigo, instability, falling, nausea, tinnitus, hearing loss etc. For this study we randomly have selected a major sample of 9173 neurootological patients. 4062 (44,28%) of the total group of our patients complained about […]
Introduction: In the cooperation between the “LVA-Klinik Am Kurpark”, Bad Kissingen,( rehab-clinic of the pension fund of Baden-Württemberg, Germany), we are keeping files about 749 cases, who underwent a rehab therapy for tinnitus since 1995 in cooperation with the Neurootological Research Institute of the 4-G-F. The bio-datas of this group are listed in table 1: […]
Introduction: Tinnitus is an important complaint and/or disease within our population. The neurootologist is regularly dealing with many different disorders of the human cranial senses, like for instance tinnitus, as only sign, but also in combination with vertigo, dizziness, giddiness and hearing loss. Together with the “Rehabilitation-Clinic Am Kurpark” in Bad Kissingen we have established […]
Introduction: The human mainly regards himself within and together with his surrounding world straight forward through the windows of his senses. Thus he will not directly detect, that there are very complicated, but still existing elements in his surrounding, as well as within himself. The most obvious things, which he detects, are the world of […]
The International Neurootological and Equilibriometric Society, which has settled since 1974 at Bad Kissingen, Germany, is welcoming all of our guests from around the world. This year we are celebrating the 31st NES-Congress and especially the Pre-Congress Symposium in honour of our dear friend Prof. Antonio Cesarani from Milan and Sassari, Italy. Not only within […]
