Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of canalith repositioning procedure(CRP)on the postural stability in patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo of the posterior semicircular canal(BPPV-PSC).METHODS 25 patients with BPPV-PSC were taken the posturography before and after the CRP.The posturography test has four conditions including①firm surface with eyes open(EO);②firm surface with eyes closed(EC);③foam surface with EO;④foam surface with EO.The body sway velocity(SV)recorded by the posturography was analyzed as parameter of postural stability.The postural stability of the patients with BPPV-PSC was compared with that of the matched control group.RESULTS ①The SVs of the BPPV-PSC patients before the CRP were greater than those of control group(P
