benign paroxysmal Positional vertigo is more commonly associated with orthostatic Dizziness than orthostatic hypotension
Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 2013Co-Authors: Eunju Jeon, Yongsoo Park, Kihong ChangAbstract:Objectives:Orthostatic Dizziness (OD) and Positional Dizziness (PD) are very common conditions in Dizziness clinics, but those two conditions are not clearly separated. We aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of simple OD and OD combined with PD for the diagnosis of benign paroxysmal Positional vertigo (BPPV) and orthostatic intolerance (OI).Methods:Patients presenting with OD (n = 102) were divided into two groups according to their symptoms: group PO, presenting with PD as well as OD; group O, presenting with OD. A thorough medical history, physical examination, and vestibular function tests were performed to identify the etiology of the Dizziness. Orthostatic vital sign measurement (OVSM) was used to diagnose OI.Results:The majority of patients were in group PO (87.3%). BPPV was the most common cause of OD for all patients (36.3%) and group PO (37.1%), while OI was most common etiology for group O (38.5%). A total of 17 (16.7%) OI patients were identified by OVSM test. Orthostatic hypotension (n...

clinical significance of orthostatic Dizziness in the diagnosis of benign paroxysmal Positional vertigo and orthostatic intolerance
American Journal of Otolaryngology, 2013Co-Authors: Eunju Jeon, Yongsoo Park, Shinae Park, Kyoungho Park, Kihong ChangAbstract:Abstract Purpose Orthostatic Dizziness (OD) and Positional Dizziness (PD) are considerably common conditions in Dizziness clinic, whereas those two conditions are not clearly separated. We aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of simple OD and OD combined with PD for the diagnosis of benign paroxysmal Positional vertigo (BPPV) and orthostatic intolerance (OI). Patients and Methods Patients presenting with OD (n = 102) were divided into two groups according to their symptoms: group PO, presenting with PD as well as OD; group O, presenting with OD. A thorough medical history, physical examination, and vestibular function tests were performed to identify the etiology of the Dizziness. Orthostatic vital sign measurement (OVSM) was used to diagnose OI. Results The majority of patients were in group PO (87.3%). BPPV was the most common cause of OD for entire patients (36.3%) and group PO (37.1%), while OI was most common etiology for group O (38.5%). Total of 17 (16.7%) OI patients were identified by OVSM test. Orthostatic hypotension (n = 10) was most frequently found, followed by orthostatic hypertension (n = 5), and orthostatic tachycardia (n = 2). Group O showed significantly higher percentage (38.5%) of OI than group PO (13.5%) (P = 0.039). Conclusion It is suggested that orthostatic testing such as OVSM or head-up tilt table test should be performed as an initial work up for the patients with simple OD. Positional tests for BPPV should be considered as an essential diagnostic test for patients with OD, even though their Dizziness is not associated with PD.

Benign paroxysmal Positional vertigo as a complication of head trauma
Ugeskrift for Læger, 2019Co-Authors: Trine Velte Honoré, Niels West, Mads KlokkerAbstract:: Head trauma is the most frequent cause of benign paroxysmal Positional vertigo (BPPV) in patients younger than 50 years, and finding the aetiology of post-traumatic Dizziness can be challenging. This case report presents a 45-year-old male patient suffering from Positional Dizziness after head trauma. He was diagnosed in a reposition chair, after manual manoeuvres had failed to provide the diag-nosis. The role of a reposition chair in diagnosing post-traumatic BPPV has not been demonstrated before, and this case illustrates, how the chair can help to clarify the diagnosis.

Severe hydrocephalus complicated with benign paroxysmal Positional vertigo: one case report.
International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2015Co-Authors: Jian Jun Chen, Wei Jin Cheng, Ye Fen LuAbstract:In this study, we reported one female patient diagnosed with severe hydrocephalus who presented with benign paroxysmal Positional vertigo (BPPV). She presented with progressive headache and Dizziness prior to hospitalization as chief complaints. She received Diagnostic Dix-Hallpike and Roll tests to make a definite diagnosis. The patient was cured after Gufoni maneuver and did not recur after 6-month follow-up. The diagnostic procedures of this female case prompted that prior to formal treatment, patients developing severe hydrocephalus complicated with BPPV should receive provocative test for Positional Dizziness, performed by experienced physicians from the Department of neurology and otolaryngology.
