Book Synopsis Vestibular Perceptual Thresholds to Assess Vestibular Processing in Health and Disease by : Megan Janette Kobel
Download or read book Vestibular Perceptual Thresholds to Assess Vestibular Processing in Health and Disease written by Megan Janette Kobel and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The three manuscripts presented herein examine the use of vestibular perceptual thresholds to assess vestibular processing in health and disease. The first manuscript assesses linear motion perception, mediated by the otoliths in the vestibular system, in healthy vestibular function to identify factors influencing vestibular perception. Results suggested that orientation relative to gravity influenced perceptual sensitivity, as earth-vertical (i.e., motions parallel to gravity) thresholds were overall higher than earth-horizontal (i.e., motions perpendicular to gravity) thresholds and previously reported differences in thresholds on the basis of body orientation may largely capture the influence of orientation relative to gravity. Additionally, differences in motion perception on the basis of motion relative to the head were noted, as thresholds with predominant utricular contributions were significantly impacted by orientation relative to gravity and overall lower than thresholds with predominant saccular contributions. In the second manuscript, translation perception was assessed in two patients with complete bilateral vestibular loss in order to verify vestibular contributions to linear motion perception. In the absence of vestibular function, thresholds were overall elevated, suggesting predominant vestibular contributions to whole body direction recognition tasks. A significant elevation in earth-vertical thresholds was also identified, suggesting internal models of gravity are impaired secondary to peripheral vestibular dysfunction leading to decreases sensory precision. Finally, in the third manuscript, motion perception was assayed in persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD), a common cause of chronic dizziness. Overall, results suggested that motion perception was largely preserved in PPPD as vestibular thresholds were undistinguishable from age-matched controls. However, elevated roll tilt thresholds, which are reliant on canal-otolith integration, were identified in a subset of patients suggesting impaired intra-vestibular integration. Overall, vestibular perceptual thresholds provide unique insights into motion processing and are capable of identifying changes in peripheral and central vestibular function.
Book Synopsis Diagnosis and Treatment of Vestibular Disorders by : Seilesh Babu
Download or read book Diagnosis and Treatment of Vestibular Disorders written by Seilesh Babu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-01-24 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text reviews the current understanding of vestibular anatomy allowing for a framework of reference, and how it's applied to vestibular testing, diagnosis and management of dizziness. Vestibular testing is an important tool in the evaluation and management of the patient with dizziness. It aids in establishing a diagnosis and determining the side or site of the lesion. In addition, it guides practitioners in selection of treatment and allows the ability of the patient’s condition to be evaluated over its time course. Common vestibular pathologies such as benign positional vertigo, Meniere’s disease, multisensory imbalance, vestibular neuritis, superior canal dehiscence, and vestibular migraine will be addressed in a concise and understandable manner. The text follows a clear format in which the etiology, pathophysiology, diagnostic features and medical or surgical management of such pathologies are discussed. The book gains increased importance as superior canal dehiscence and vestibular migraine are relatively new hot topics. Lastly, relatively rare entities such as bilateral vestibular hypofunction, pediatric vestibular disorders and central vestibular disorders are discussed. This text serves as a complete reference for clinicians, students and researchers interested in this common and severe disorder allowing for improved patient care and advancement of knowledge in the field. Chapters are written by acknowledged experts, allowing summary review of the newest and most up-to-date understanding of scientific information. Diagnosis and Treatment of Vestibular Disorders will be an invaluable resource for otolaryngologists, neurologists, otologists and neurotologists, basic science and translational researchers with interests in the vestibular system, fellows and residents in aforementioned fields, and general practitioners with an interest in patients with symptoms of dizziness.
Book Synopsis The Vestibular System by : Jay M. Goldberg
Download or read book The Vestibular System written by Jay M. Goldberg and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-02-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Vestibular System: A Sixth Sense, leading experts present an integrative, comprehensive and innovative look at the sense that Aristotle missed. The vestibular system plays a vital role in everyday life, contributing to a surprising range of functions from reflexes to the highest levels of perception and consciousness. This text not only offers a thorough and fresh review of the basic sensory transduction, the neurophysiology of peripheral and central pathways and how vestibular signals are processed in the control of gaze and posture; it significantly moves the discussion forward with its attention to the current research and the field's revolutionary advances, such as the understanding of neural correlates of self-motion and the basis of clinical disorders. In addition, the objective presentation of existing controversies is exciting reading and an extremely important contribution to the text's completeness. Dynamic, intellectually challenging, and unique in its level of integration of the material, this book is essential for anyone interested in understanding the vestibular system.
