ABSTRACT Background: Ménière’s disease (MD) is characterized by recurrent, sudden episodes of disabling vertigo. A previous randomized, controlled study demonstrated a high efficacy of a fixed combination of cinnarizine 20mg and dimenhydrinate 40mg (Arlevert®, tid.) in MD, with no statistically significant difference to betahistine (dimesylate salt, 12mg, tid). Objective: This post hoc analysis was performed […]
Validating a Spectrum of Equilibriometric Test for Office Use during 40 Years from 1970 till 2010 Claussen Erika et all Modern equilibriometry is a non-invasive investigation method. It allows establishing a neurootological topodiagnostic scheme, which leads to a correlated therapy of the various disequilibrium states. It also can be used for monitoring and guiding a […]
Trends in Neurootosurgery from 1970 till 2010 Kersebaum Michael et all Giddiness and dizziness are very common amongst our patients.In Germany these signs occur in about 10 % of the patients of the general practitioner and in about 30 % of the ENT- specialist. Because of these quantities there is a great demand for vertigo […]
40 Years of Body Movement Analysis by CCG and Posturography between 1970 till 2010 Heid Lorant et all The most sensitive indicator for giddiness and dizziness, i. e. human disequilibrium, are the motor reactions of the body. Already in the year 1848, Romberg designed the so-called Romberg standing test. In the year 1938, Unterberger designed […]
Differentiations in the Vestibular Caloric Test Results by means of Butterfly Patterns from 1970 till 2010Bencsik Bencsik Beata et all Principally, the caloric test of Barany is the most systematic test only stimulating one inner ear receptor, i. e., the lateral vestibular semicircular canal. Opposite to audiometry, you have no masking problems. For evaluating objectively […]
Abstract Discussions on Per- and Postrotatory Tests for Diagnostic Nystagmus Stimulation in the Neurootological Laboratory from 1970 till 2010 Bencze Gabor, et all The rotatory chair position is seated on a church-bell held with ball bearings. However, additionally, the bioelectrical potentials, which were derived by pairs of ENG-electrodes sitting on either side of the two […]
Evaluations upon Objective and Quantitative Monocular Nystagmus Analysis by Polygraphic ENG from 1970 till 2010 Nagy Elemer, et all Electronystagmography is the superior test analyzing eye movements with open and with closed eyes. The nystagmus signals to be generated by the human central nervous system start after the age of the 27th after procreation. The […]
Important Trends in the Vertigo Treatment during the Years 1970 till 2010 on an International Scale Claussen Claus F. et all Through the evaluation of more than 130.000 clinical neurootological cases we have designed a topodiagnostic equilibriometry. Medical action has to deal with the complaints of the patients, the medical diagnostics in morphology and function […]
Abstract The achievment of correct erect standing position, both in static and in dynamic conditions, require continuos adaptation of couterreaction of antigravitary muscles to the gravity force, in order to stabilize head position and to mantain erect position itself. Maintaining of upright position of the body is acquired via a continual to and fro movement […]
