Abstract
Implications of vestibular telemetry for the management of Ménière’s Disease—Our experience with three adults
Highlights
Over the course of the attack, the nystagmus direction alternated from right-beating to left-beating, back to rightbeating, and to left-beating
Assessing the data did not identify any episodes of nystagmus—see Figure 4
This trace is very different to that of patient one and patient two, as there were no definitive examples of nystagmus
Summary
Ménière's disease is a chronic idiopathic condition affecting the inner ear that results in repeated episodes of vertigo. The duration of a characteristic episode of vertigo is between twenty minutes and twelve hours according to contemporary classification systems.[1,2] Advancements in the field of vestibular telemetry have allowed the continuous ambulatory assessment of individuals with dizziness, vertigo and balance disturbance.[3,4] This article outlines the findings from assessing three patients with Ménière's disease and discusses how the use of vestibular telemetry aided their management
