OBJETIVO: investigar o impacto da Reabilitação Vestibular personalizada e comparar os aspectos físicos, emocionais e funcionais pré e pós a aplicação do Dizziness Handicap Inventory. MÉTODOS: participaram 10 pacientes, com sintomas decorrentes de distúrbios do sistema vestibular e hipótese diagnóstica de disfunção vestibular crônica. Estes foram avaliados quanto aos aspectos físicos, emocionais e funcionais por meio do Dizziness Handicap Inventory pré e pós reabilitação vestibular personalizada. RESULTADOS: no Dizziness Handicap Inventory pré foi verificado que o aspecto físico foi o mais pontuado, seguido pelo emocional e funcional. A reabilitação vestibular foi eficaz, uma vez que houve diminuição nas queixas de qualidade de vida, e melhores resultados em todos os aspectos avaliados no Dizziness Handicap Inventory pós, apenas um paciente obteve melhora somente dos aspectos emocionais e funcionais, além de piora dos aspectos físicos. CONCLUSÃO: o Dizziness Handicap Inventory brasileiro aplicado pré e pós reabilitação vestibular personalizada mostrou-se como um teste eficaz para acompanhar pacientes submetidos a reabilitação vestibular, capaz de mostrar a melhora significante nos sintomas da vertigem crônica, além do impacto negativo na qualidade de vida dos pacientes deste estudo.

“…Together, discomfort, reduced motor capacity, and psychological suffering lead to functional limitations in personal care, tasks, and daily life activities, especially during the performance of tasks that require some postural balance, quick cephalic rotations, and good dynamic visual acuity. 7 8 9 In such a context, frequent vestibular dysfunction affects life in family, professional, and social activities, causing losses in the individual's quality of life (QOL). 10…”

Introduction Dizziness can be characterized as a balance disorder that causes discomfort, leading to several functional limitations. Currently, vestibular rehabilitation has been highlighted as a possible treatment. Objective Analyze the effects of completing a vestibular rehabilitation treatment protocol on quality of life and postural balance in patients with vestibular complaints, as well as to compare these effects between the patients taking or not taking antivertigo drugs. Methods A nonrandomized controlled trial was performed with 20 patients previously diagnosed with vestibular diseases. Information regarding vertigo symptoms, quality of life as assessed through the Dizziness Handicap Inventory, visual analog scale of dizziness, and stabilometry using force platform was collected. Patients were treated for 12 weeks by a custom protocol. The sample was divided into two groups according to the use (medicated group, n = 9) or not (control group, n = 11) of antivertigo drugs. Results There was improvement in quality of life (p < 0.001) and intensity of dizziness (p = 0.003) with the intervention. An improvement of postural balance was observed through functional tests. However, no statistically significant difference was noted in stabilometry. When both groups were compared, no statistically significant differences between the variations of the variables analyzed were found in the re-evaluation session. Conclusion Quality of life and postural balance are improved with intervention. However, this improvement is not associated with pharmacologic treatment.

Peripheral versus Central Vestibular DisordersPeripheral Vestibular Disorders (PVD) include pathology of inner ear vestibular structures as well as the vestibular portion of the eighth cranial nerve. 1 Such pathology diminishes available sensory information regarding head position and movement. These disorders include neuritis, labyrinthitis, bilateral vestibular loss, Meniere's, BPPV, and vestibulopathy following surgical procedures (e.g. labyrinthectomy and acoustic neuroma).Central Vestibular Disorders (CVD) primarily involve the vestibular nuclear complex and the cerebellum, as well as structures of the reticular activating system, midbrain, and higher centers of cortical function. Pathology of the central vestibular structures affects integration and processing of sensory input from the vestibular, visual, and somatosensory systems. The most common CVD include brainstem strokes, head trauma, migraine-related vestibulopathy, multiple sclerosis, and cerebellar degeneration. 2
