Use of Alsarhan Maneuver for the treatment of Subjective benign positional paroxysmal vertigo
View through CrossRef
Introduction:Benign positional paroxysmal vertigo is the most common cause of vertigo worldwide; a subclinical or subjective variant of that disease is defined as the presence of subjective vertigo without corresponding nystagmus; it accounts for 11.5% of all cases of Benign positional paroxysmal vertigo.Materials and methods:A prospective study of 32 patients presented with subjective Benign positional paroxysmal vertigo and had performed Alsarhan ( Rapid Bilateral Sitting Up) maneuver and followed up for a period of one month for any recurrence of the disease.Results:Alsarhan maneuver was useful in 84.4% of the cases; the usefulness rate was statistically significant.Conclusion:Alsarhan maneuver can be a promising method in treating this condition.
