Avaliação da manobra de reposicionamento de Epley em indivíduos com vertigem posicional paroxística benigna

Abstract: OBJETIVO: avaliar os parâmetros estabilométricos após a manobra de reposicionamento de Epley em indivíduos com Vertigem Posicional Paroxística Benigna (VPPB) previamente confirmada através da manobra de Dix-Hallpike. MÉTODOS: estudo experimental que incluiu pacientes que apresentaram VPPB com nistagmo de posicionamento à prova de Dix-Hallpike, avaliados no ano de 2008, no Ambulatório Multidisciplinar de Vertigem, e que foram submetidos à manobra de reposicionamento de Epley e avaliados quanto ao equilíbrio pos… Show more

“…In this study it was observed that all volunteers had BPPV canalolithiasis type which is the increased density of the endolymph caused by the presence of free particles in suspension in the semicircular canals 4 , as in the study done by Costa et al 17 functional aspect enables the presence of impairments in the performance of household activities, professional, social, recreational, and dependence to perform tasks such as getting around without help 26 .…”

“…But it was possible to identify subjects with dizziness, which is not possible through NPST. The NPST identified the positional vertigo, revealing the need for insertion into routine clinical research of nystagmus, because confirm the BPPV, which is common and affects most elderly population 9,13,[25][26][27][28][29][30] . To BPPV´s treatment is indicated the repositioning maneuvers that replace the debris on the affected side .…”

“…In individuals older than 75 years, the prevalence is bigger, around 80% 6 . One of the peripheral vestibular disorders that can affect the elderly is benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) 7,8 which is characterized clinically by the episodes of intense vertigo, during seconds and triggered by certain head movements 9,10 . Depending on its intensity becomes a disabling disorder affecting daily activities 11 .…”

“…Segundo Costa et al 20 , em uma amostra reduzida de pessoas com VPPB (n=13), os escores das variáveis estabilométricas, como a amplitude do deslocamento do centro de pressão no sentido anteroposterior, reduziu, bem como a amplitude de deslocamento do centro de pressão no sentido látero-lateral, além da área de deslocamento do centro de pressão e da velocidade de oscilação corporal. Os autores concluíram que a manobra de Epley é efetiva em relação ao equilíbrio postural de forma imediata, proporcionando melhor estabilidade postural em relação às oscilações corporais ocorridas anteriormente à sua aplicação.…”
