Clinical significance of head shake movement in three planes in individuals with dizziness
American Journal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Medicine and Surgery Nov 08, 2019
Altın B, et al. - Despite normal vestibular test outcomes, researchers assessed the effectiveness of head shake movement on three head movement planes (yaw, pitch and, roll) in patients with dizziness. For this investigation, 20 people (aged between 20 and 51 years) with complaints of dizziness were involved, and their findings were contrasted with the outcomes of 20 age- and gender-matched controls. The authors discovered significant differences in the yaw, pitch, and roll planes between the study and control groups of the Head Shake-Sensory Organization Test-5 scores. No statistically significant differences were found between the two groups of the Head Shake-Sensory Organization Test-2 scores in the yaw, pitch, and roll planes. The highest specificity was observed in the pitch plane, followed by the yaw and roll plane when the sensitivity and specificity of Head Shake-Sensory Organization Test-5 conditions were examined. For the evaluation of balance performance, dynamic head movements are an important parameter. The head shake modification in individuals with dizziness could be used successfully in three-movement planes.
