Abstract: Even after successful repositioning maneuvers for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), some patients report dizziness lasting for a certain period afterwards. We studied the prevalence and clinical factors associated with residual dizziness in a sample of elderly patients. Sixty outpatients over 65 years of age, affected by idiopathic BPPV were recruited; the exclusion criterion was a history of previous episodes of vertigo, including positional. The patients were asked to describe their self-perceived… Show more

“…In our sample we found a lower rate and a shorter duration of RD than in previously published works [10,11,15]; in our opinion, sociodemographic data (age of the patient, previous vestibular episodes) and the lack of a commonly accepted definition of RD may play a role in it. A recent study showed that both vertigo and dizziness, evaluated by VAS scales, decreased exponentially day by day after successful repositioning maneuvers but with different constants, suggesting the independence of the two ratings [16].…”
