Abstract

Objective: To study the effect of vestibular rehabilitation training on residual dizziness in patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Methods: 70 patients with residual dizziness diagnosed as BPPV in Shaanxi Provincial People's hospital were divided into observation group and control group. The observation group was treated with manual reduction + vestibular function rehabilitation training, and the control group was treated with manual reduction. There were 35 patients in the two groups. Within two weeks before and after training, the patients' vertigo Disability Rating Scale score (DHI), vestibular dysfunction rating scale score (vADL) and vestibular symptom index score (vADL) were effectively evaluated. Results: before training, there was no significant difference in DHI, vADL and vADL scores between the observation group and the control group (P > 0.05). After training, there was significant difference in DHI, vADL and vADL scores (P < 0.05). Conclusion: vestibular rehabilitation training can effectively change the residual dizziness symptoms of patients with BPPV, and the treatment effect is significantly higher than that of patients with simple manual reduction. The treatment of residual dizziness symptoms of patients with BPPV can greatly promote and apply vestibular rehabilitation training.
