Závratě mohou pocházet z mnoha zdrojů. Proto je jedním z cílů poskytovatele zdravotní péče vyloučit možné příčiny pacientových příznaků závratí. Jedním z rozlišení, které může být nutné provést, je, zda závratě, které pacient uvádí, pocházejí
So, you’ve been diagnosed with “General Vestibulopathy.” Is it a meaningful or a worthless diagnosis? What does it mean and what do you do from here?
I recently saw WM, an established patient of mine who was doing quite well, for an annual follow up visit. Thinking back on her story reminded me of the importance of receiving a correct diagnosed when you have an inner ear problem.
Il a été démontré que la rééducation vestibulaire peut être efficace pour améliorer les symptômes liés à de nombreux troubles vestibulaires (oreille interne). 1, 2 Les personnes atteintes de troubles vestibulaires souffrent souvent de vertiges,
The friends and family members who care for vestibular patients provide essential support. Without firsthand experience, these individuals are challenged to learn about vestibular disorders in order to lessen the impacts of their loved one’s illness. VeDA seeks to focus attention on this important part of our vestibular community and to support their efforts.
PPPD symptoms include non-vertiginous dizziness and unsteadiness that is increased by a person’s own motion, exposure to environments with a complex or moving stimuli (e.g., stores, crowds), and performance of tasks that required precise visual focus (e.g., reading, using a computer). PPPD is NOT a psychiatric disorder, but rather a neuro-otologic condition with behavioral elements.
The inner ear’s vestibular organs and the associated nerves and brain centers form a complex system that serve many functions and can be affected by a number of outside systems, such as vision and proprioception (i.e. your muscles and joints). A thorough evaluation of your vestibular function may involve:
– Medical history
– Physical examination
– Tests of inner ear function
– Hearing tests
– Balance tests
– Vision tests
HISTOIRE En 1986, les neurologues allemands Thomas Brandt et Marianne Dieterich ont décrit pour la première fois une affection qu'ils ont appelée PPV (Phobic postural vertigo, en français: vertige postural phobique). Les symptômes comprenaient des
Comment la maladie de Ménière tire-t-elle son nom ? En 1861, le médecin français Prosper Ménière a émis la théorie que les crises de vertige, les bourdonnements d'oreille (acouphènes) et la perte d'audition provenaient de
A patient registry is a database of health information that helps describe the patient experience. When you participate in VeDA’s patient registry, you share your diagnostic journey. That data is anonymously summarized and analyzed for trends to better inform policy-makers and the medical community so that improvements can be made to the diagnostic and treatment process.
These patient education resources are available to be co-branded with by VeDA Professional Members with current dues.
Tinnitus is abnormal noise perceived in one or both ears or in the head. Tinnitus (pronounced either “TIN-uh-tus” or “tin-NY-tus”) may be intermittent, or it might appear as a constant or continuous sound. It can be experienced as a ringing, hissing, whistling, buzzing, or clicking sound and can vary in pitch from a low roar to a high squeal.
In 1861 the French physician Prosper Ménière theorized that attacks of vertigo, ringing in the ear (tinnitus) and hearing loss came from the inner ear rather than from the brain, as was generally believed at the time. Once this idea was accepted, the name of Dr. Prosper Ménière began its long association with this inner ear disease and with inner ear balance disorders in general.
