“…The insignificant effect of age on SVV angles found in the present study is in line with the previous reports . As discussed earlier, this is likely due to the less susceptibility of utricle to ageing process.…”

“…Likewise, contradictory outcomes have been reported regarding the effect of gender on SVV, in which further research can be useful. While comparable SVV results were noted between genders in some studies, other studies found men to have better verticality perceptions than women . The notable gender differences have also been shown in other visuospatial orientation tasks …”

“…Despite well‐documented findings regarding the ageing effect on the vestibular system, we found no significant effect of age on SVV angles. It is worth noting that our samples were larger than those of previous studies that investigated this age effect . In this regard, the utricular function does not appear to be influenced by age.…”

“…Furthermore, compared to younger adults, older individuals showed degraded performances in various vestibular tests . Nevertheless, comparable SVV results between older and younger adults have been reported, implying the insignificant influence of age on SVV . It is worth noting that the sample size used in those studies was small (N < 100) and the statistical power could be compromised.…”

Objectives: Subjective visual vertical (SVV) is a simple, quick and reliable test for measuring utricular function. The literature on the effects of fundamental demographic variables such as age and gender on SVV is inconclusive and should be supported by research with larger samples. The aim of the present study was to determine the influences of age, gender and geometric pattern of visual image on SVV among healthy adults. Study Design: This study employed a repeated measures design. Settings: Otorhinolaryngology Clinic, Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia, Malaysia. Participants: Eligible Malaysian adults (N = 187, aged 21-75 years) were recruited and categorised into young (N = 60), middle-aged (N = 66) and older (N = 61) groups. Most of them were Malay, and 51.3% were men. Main Outcome Measures: Subjective visual vertical angles (in degrees) were determined from each participant in a static upright condition using a computerised SVV device. They were asked to indicate their verticality perception for three types of visual images (solid line, dotted line and arrow pattern).Results: Three-way mixed ANOVA revealed insignificant influences of age and gender on SVV results (P > 0.05). In contrast, mean SVV angles were significantly higher for the arrow pattern than for other visual images (P = 0.004).Conclusion: While the insignificant influences of age and gender on static SVV are further ascertained with larger samples, the perception of verticality is less accurate when aligning a more geometrically complex visual image (ie, arrow pattern). Further SVV research on vestibular-disordered patients is beneficial, particularly to verify the normative data obtained with this complex visual image.

“…36 Some Authors reported variations in SVV values immediately after CRP. 37,38 Although these works highlighted an otolithic dysfunction in BPPV, it is not mentioned any correlation between such outcomes and RD after CRP. For instance, Faralli et al (2016) observed only subclinical modifications of SVV perception in patients with more recent onset of BPPV.…”

Residual Dizziness after Successful Repositioning Maneuver for Idiopathic Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo: A Review

et al. 2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a vestibular disorder cause of vertigo. The BPPV may be corrected mechanically by repositioning maneuvers but even after successful maneuvers, some patients report residual dizziness for a certain period afterward. Early recognition and treatment might decrease the incidence of residual dizziness in patients with BPPV, especially in those patients with psychiatric comorbidities and in the elderly, lowering the risk of falling. Many pathogenetic hypotheses for residual dizziness are under debate.The purpose of this review was to identify, evaluate and review recent researches about possible causal factors involved in residual dizziness and the implications on clinical practice. A literature search was performed using different databases such as Pubmed and Scopus. The following search terms were used: residual dizziness, otolithic membrane and BPPV. The search found a total of 1192 titles, which were reduced to 963 after a procedure of de-duplication of the found titles. The research was then restricted to an interval of time comprised between 2000 and 2016 for a total of 800 titles. Among these titles, only those including the terms benign paroxysmal positional vertigo were considered eligible for this review. Only publications in English language were taken into consideration and we excluded those with not available abstract. Finally, 90 abstracts were obtained and critically evaluated by two different Authors, and additional studies were identified by hand searching from the references of artiche of interest. Only 53 were included in this work.
