“…Imbalance and vertigo are the symptoms that most negatively affect the well-being of patients of both genders and different age-ranges (3) . Epidemiological studies with school-age children have shown that around 15% had experienced at least one episode of dizziness during the period of one year (1) . Various clinical studies about vestibulopathy in children have demonstrated agreement with regard to their primary causes.…”

“…Vestibulopathy is a disorder that causes a series of signs and symptoms, such as lack of balance, changes in body posture and in motor coordination, dizziness, vertigo, nauseas and vomiting. It may affect children and adolescents (4) and interfere in psychological behavior and performance at school (1) . The incapacity caused by dizziness, whether in the emotional, functional, or physical domains, is most important in the social and personal context of patients, irrespective of its etiology, since it considerably affects their quality of life (5) .…”

“…It is a motor-sensory function, regulated by the central nervous system (CNS), that includes this information, coordinating eye and head movements to maintain a sharp image (1) . These functions are fundamental for increasing motor skills, enabling children to have full command of their body in different activities, such as jumping, running balancing on one leg, and writing, among others.…”

Introduction: Dizziness during childhood and adolescence interferes with psychological behavior, and can lead to consequences such as poor academic performance and language disorders. Purpose: To develop and verify the applicability of the short version of the Dizziness Handicap Inventory-Child/Adolescent (DHI-CA) in school-going children and adolescents. Methods: A methodological validation study developed in municipal public network teaching units of Cabula Sanitary District/ Beiru de Salvador, Bahia. Data were collected by means of the Dizziness Handicap Inventory Child/Adolescent (DHI-CA) and proposed short version denominated Dizziness Handicap Inventory Child/Adolescentshort form (DHI-CA/SF). The DHI-CA/SF is composed of 15 objective questions divided into subscales corresponding to emotional, physical and functional aspects. Results: The sample of 97 children and adolescents was composed of 69 girls (71.1%) and 28 (28.9%), boys. The age-range was from 7 to 15 years with mean age of 11 years. Internal consistency relative to the total scale was α=0.84; and α=0.66 for the functional; α=0.61, emotional, and α=0.65 for the physical subscale. Relative to agreement between the two applications of DHI-CA/SF, the authors verified that the intra-examiner intraclass correlation coefficients demonstrated satisfactory agreement, and satisfactory to excellent agreement for the items in the second application. Agreement values in the second application were: -emotional: 0.70; -Functional: 0.93, and Physical: 0.80. Conclusion: By means of the Dizziness Handicap Inventory Child/Adolescent DHI-CA it was possible to obtain a short version denominated Dizziness Handicap Inventory Child/Adolescent-short form (DHI/CA-SF) applicable in children or adolescents with complaints of dizziness.

Purpose: Acquired vestibulotoxicity from hospital-prescribed medications such as aminoglycoside antibiotics affects as many as 40,000 people each year in North America. However, there are no current federally approved drugs to prevent or treat the debilitating and permanent loss of vestibular function caused by bactericidal aminoglycoside antibiotics. This review will cover our current understanding of the impact of, and mechanisms underlying, aminoglycoside-induced vestibulotoxicity and highlight the gaps in our knowledge that remain. Conclusions: Aminoglycoside-induced vestibular deficits have long-term impacts on patients across the lifespan. Additionally, the prevalence of aminoglycoside-induced vestibulotoxicity appears to be greater than cochleotoxicity. Thus, monitoring for vestibulotoxicity should be independent of auditory monitoring and encompass patients of all ages from young children to older adults before, during, and after aminoglycoside therapy.
