The head impulse test (HIT) and HIT combined with direction-changing Nystagmus-Test of Skew deviation (HINTS) have been proposed as bedside tests to differentiate between peripheral and central causes...
Pubmed, Google Scholar, EmBase, and articles references published in English up to July 2021 were searched for keywords "vertigo" or "acute vestibular syndrome" or "dizziness" and "head impulse" and "...
A total of 11 studies were included analysing both HIT (8 studies, N = 417) and HINTS (6 studies, N = 405). HIT and HINTS were performed within 24 h in 4 of 11 studies. PLR and NLR for HIT in PV was 4...
The HIT and HINTS exams appear to be moderately good discriminators of central and PV. However, in most papers, the tests were administered by neurologists and were evaluated beyond 24 h, which may li...
The video head impulse test (vHIT) assesses the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) during a rapid high-velocity low amplitude (10°-20°) head rotation. Patients with peripheral vestibulopathy have a reduced...
To achieve balance, persons with blindness (PWB) use proprioceptive and vestibular cues rather than the visual system; however, PWB are equally susceptible to acquire vestibular disorders. Reliable as...
The saccular and the utricular functioning can be assessed using cervical vestibular-evoked myogenic potential and ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potential, respectively. Evaluation of the function...
Standard (static) groups comparison....
Nineteen young PWB and 23 age-matched adults with "normal" vision (control group) were included in the study....
PWB underwent vHIT once, while the control group was tested in three conditions; condition 1 was used to simulate blindness for the control group, where vHIT was done in a pitch-dark room without prio...
The VOR gain was abnormal in the PWB group for all the canals. Among the PWB, the lateral canals (mean = 0.63) had the best VOR gain, followed by the anterior canals (mean = 0.53) and the posterior ca...
VOR is significantly reduced in PWB but not completely absent. There may be a need to develop normative data for blind individuals to decide whether or not a person with blindness has a vestibular dys...
To determine the test and retest reliability of the functional head impulse test (fHIT) in healthy young adults....
Thirty-three healthy participants (17 women, 16 men) aged 18-30 years were included in the study. Each participant underwent the fHIT twice, 1 week apart, by the same experienced clinician. Intraclass...
There was no statistically significant difference between the results of total percentage of correct answer (CA%) of the fHIT obtained in session 1 and session 2 measurements in the lateral, anterior,...
The test-retest reliability of the fHIT device was moderate. Attention, cognition, and fatigue may be the factors reducing reliability. In the diagnosis, follow-up, and rehabilitation processes of ves...
Current clinical practice considers the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) gain as registered by the video head impulse test (vHIT) as the primary measure for semicircular canal function, while the role of...
The vHIT recordings of 40 patients with left-sided horizontal VOR gains <0.8 were retrospectively evaluated for the presence of RS. The study groups included 20 patients with a final diagnosis of left...
Gain values >0.72 were found in all patients with no vestibular disease and in 4 (20%) patients having vestibulopathy. Significantly higher average left-sided RS velocity and frequency were found amon...
Although VOR gain <0.8 is considered to reflect dysfunction, a significant false-positive rate for left-sided horizontal vHIT was found for gains in the range of 0.72-0.79. The presence of RS with fre...
The Head Impulse Test, the most widely accept test to assess the vestibular function, comprises rotations of the head based on idealized orientations of the semicircular canals, instead of their indiv...
The interpretation of video head-impulse tests (video-HITs) can often be complicated, limiting their clinical utility in acute vestibular syndrome. We aimed to determine video-HIT findings in patients...
We retrospectively analyzed the results of video-HITs in 59 patients with PCS. Irrespective of the actual lesion revealed later on MRIs, ipsilateral and contralateral sides were assigned according to ...
Video-HITs were normal in 32 (54%), ipsilaterally positive in 11 (19%), bilaterally positive in 10 (17%), and contralaterally positive in 6 (10%) patients with PCS. Wrong-way saccades were more freque...
Patients with PCS may show various head-impulse responses that deviate from the findings expected in VN, which include normal, contralaterally positive, and negative saccadic amplitude asymmetry (i.e....
The caloric test (C-test) and video head impulse test (vHIT) are known to occasionally show contradictory results in patients with Meniere's disease (MD). The reasons underlying this discrepancy betwe...
We enrolled 136 patients (174 ears) who visited the vertigo/dizziness center of our university and underwent the C-test and vHIT between February 2018 and February 2020. Inner ear MRI was also perform...
Among the ears in the present study, 46.0% (80/174) showed a discrepancy in the results of the C-test and vHIT, and the disease-related distribution of patients showing this discrepancy was as follows...
The volume of the ELS may affect the discrepancy of results between the C-test and vHIT....
To assess vestibular-ocular reflex (VOR) function in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) using a new method called functional head impulse test (fHIT)....
Case-control study....
Tertiary medical center....
Twenty individuals with PD were recruited for PD group, and twenty healthy individuals for the control group. Ages of both groups ranged from 47 to 76 years....
According to the modified Hoehn-Yahr score, PD group was classified as an early stage with a range of 1-2.5 and a mid-late stage with a range of 3-5. Percentage of correct answers (%CA) was calculated...
PD group had statistically lower fHIT %CA in the right lateral, left lateral, and left posterior SCC planes compared to control group (p < .05). There was no statistical difference between two PD seve...
It was concluded that the functional VOR in the right lateral and left lateral and left posterior SCC plane was affected in individuals with PD. Our results show that impaired VOR and reduced dynamic ...
Plugging a symptomatic dehiscent superior semicircular canal (SSCC) often leads to a nonfunctional postoperative canal. However, in some instances, a residual function has been described. This study a...

Thirty-five patients with confirmed SSCC dehiscence....
Video head impulse test was conducted pre- and postoperatively to assess any difference in the function of the SSCC....
Mean gain and pathological saccades were recorded according to well-established thresholds along with dehiscence length and location to evaluate any associations to residual canal function....
When comparing preoperative to postoperative SSCC abnormal gains, a significant increase was observed after plugging ( p = 0.023). This also held true when abnormal gain and pathologic saccades were t...
Dehiscence length and location may be useful in predicting disease symptomatology preoperatively and canals function recovery after plugging. These factors could be used as indicators for preoperative...
