The time since onset of the symptoms ranged from 2 weeks to 6 months, and the causes of the unilateral vestibular hypofunction included vestibular nerve resection, labyrinthectomy, and vestibular neuritis. The DVA test was performed under both active (self-generated head movements) and passive (examiner generated head movements) conditions. %PDF-1.5 Begin with exercise 1A. Then return to sitting position. Decreased ataxia and improved balance after vestibular rehabilitation. When the participant was unable to correctly identify all trials at a given acuity level, the test was stopped, and the number of missed optotypes was recorded. With the loss of the sensory mismatch, which is thought to produce the symptoms of motion sensitivity, there would be no motion-provoked dizziness. Stand in place when you turn around.

The exercise program was devised so that the participants could successfully complete each phase of the program. According to the self-report exercise log, participant S3 was compliant with the exercise program (73%). As the CNS learns to compensate for the sensory mismatch, it may also learn strategies for improving visual acuity during head movements. J Neurol Phys Ther. The other individual in the H group had a pre-treatment MSQ score below 10 and demonstrated a mild increase in MSQ score; the post-treatment value, however, was still <10. The purpose of these exercises is to build up a tolerance mechanism and the more diligently and regularly they are carried out, the sooner the symptoms will disappear. Hold the tucked position for 5 seconds. 2. /Type /XObject In a similar manner the number of optotypes missed during the passive ipsilesional DVA decreased (pretreatment mean=14.3, sd=10.0, post-treatment mean=8.7, sd=9.71), which was also a significant change (p < 0.05).
