This is an in-depth overview of the assessment and management of balance system impairments, such as dizziness and vertigo.
This text begins with assessment techniques, including diagnostic tests, such as computerized dynamic posturography, and maneuvers, such as positional or positioning testing and rotational testing. The authors then provide a comprehensive approach to treatment, including fall risk management. Treatment options include non-medical, medical, and surgical intervention.
The second edition of Balance Function Assessment and Management contains new topics, including the development of the vestibular system, video head impulse test (vHIT), and pediatric vestibular system and balance assessment.
