ABSTRACT

The degree of dizzy symptoms checked by the quesp was compared with the results of stabilogram(variation length and variation area with eye-open and eye-closure : VLEO, VLEC, VAEO and VAEC), caloric test(canal paresis : CP) to provide a guide for objective measurements in three groups : acute vestibular loss, chronic vestibular loss and chronic recurrent vestibular loss. The subjects used in this study were 122 patients (male, 52 ; female, 70) whose age ranged from 11 to 75 years and who visited the Department of Otolaryngology, College of Medicine, Inje University, Pusan Paik Hospital from January, 1991 through August, 1992. The results obtained were as follows : 1) Correlations between degree of dizzy symptoms and VLEO in chronic vestibular loss and in chronic recurrent vestibular loss, and VLEC in all three disease groups were statistically significant(p<0.01). 2) Correlations between degree of dizzy symptoms and VAEO and VAEC were statistically significant only in chronic recurrent vestibular loss(p<0.01). 3) Romberg ratio and degree of CP were not correlated to the degree of dizzy symptoms. From the above results, the correlations between degree of dizzy symptoms and VLEC in acute vestibular loss. VLEO and VLEC in chronic vestibular loss, and VLEO, VLEC, VAEO and VAEC in chronic recurrent vestibular loss were statistically significant. Among the parameters of stabilometry, VLEC was most correlated to the degree of dizzy symptoms.
