BPPV is one of the most common causes of vertigo but residual dizziness and imbalance can persist even after canal repositioning. Vertigenius™ helps clinicians to restore balance and confidence. #Vertigenius #VestibularRehab #BPPV #VestibularTherapy #BalanceRecovery

Yes, recommendation to routinely test for BPPV in patients with objective or subjective balance problems irrespective of symptomatic complaint.
#BPPV may be different in #older patients and can overlap with #orthostatic hypotension. These patients are at higher risk of #falls. treated BPPV reduces falls rates. @GeriSoc Prof Dara Meldrum @DaraMeldrum @irishgerontsoc @tcddublin

The vestibular system has a key role in posture and gait. Do you check for vestibular dysfunction in people presenting with falls? #FallsPreventionAwarenessWeek #FPAW2024
