Magnetic impulses play major role in today environment, so it is important to estimate their influence on the human body. From this point of view the problem of correct criteria is of special value. This considerations have provoked the study proposed. The item of the study has been to try recording the brain response to […]
Between main postural reflexes, there are tonic labyrinth reflexes generated in otolith system as a results of earth gravity. The neck extensors action is a result of these reflexes and the medullar structures are their centers. It is known that the rigidity of decerebrated animals is caused by the fastigial nucleus damage and that this […]
The aim of the study was to observe the usefulness of Betaserc in therapy of vestibular disorders in the patients with vertebro-basilar insufficiency.
An apoplectic stroke means sudden neurologic impairment due to a cerebrovascular disorder, limited by some to intracranial hemorrhage, extended by others to include occlusive cerebrovascular lesions. Cerebrovascular accidents may occur at any age, but intracerebral hemorrhage and thrombosis are rare before age 40 years. Peak incidence for cerebral thrombosis is at age 50 – 70 […]
Many authors had reported different usefull studies in the evaluation of the nystagmus which may be spontaneous and induce, any one of these have been given to study the vestibular function through of vestibuloespinal, retinalocular, vestibuloocular systems in the Cranio-Corpo-Graphy (CCG) and the Computarized Electronystagmography (CNG). Upon researching 1340 patients suffering from we found that […]
Whiplash patients referred for neurootological investigation underwent the full test battery including electronystagmography for spontaneous and positional nystgmus, ocular smooth pursuit, saccades, caloric responses and visual suppression during the caloric response. In most patients visual suppression was also performed using a broad frequency rotatory chair. Dynamic posturography was performed, in some patients even with head […]
Early vestibular evoked potentials were recorded with an extratympanic electrode. The recording principle was adding responses phase locked to a recording frequency. The recording frequency was empirically determined to match harmonically an individual response frequency and thus allowing averaging. This new technique was evaluated in benign paroxysmal positioning vertigo. Normal data were obtained from 12 […]
A new version of craniocorpography (CCG), called computerized ultrasonographic CCG (Comp-USCCG), has been clinically applied for objective recording, documentation, and quantitative evaluation of abnormal psychomotor activity in psychiatric patients.
This study was conducted in an attempt to determine the efficacy of neurofeedback (NFB) in the treatment of patients suffering from vertigo or tinnitus. Results indicated that after NFB, power for delta and theta bands was reduced; however, an increase of power was noted for the alpha bands.
This study reports 21 patients who suffered from vertigo and underwent a complete otorhinolaryngological evaluation and otoneurological tests to establish a peripheral labyrinthine disorder.
