BENIGN PAROXYSMAL POSITIONAL VERTIGO;
View through CrossRef
Objective: To compare the efficacy of Vestibular sedative versus Epley manoeuvre in the management of benign paroxysmalpositional vertigo. Study design: Interventional Quasi experimental study. Place and duration of study: This study was conducted in ENTOPD Combined Military Hospital Rawalpindi from 1st January 2008 till 30th June 2008. Results: In this study out of 30 cases managed byvestibular sedative, 10 cases showed complete relief of symptoms after 01 month. Out of 30 cases managed by Epley manoeuvre, 28 casesshowed complete recovery after 01 month. The results were compared by Chi square test, as the data was mainly qualitative in nature. Theresults of both the groups were compared on day 3, day 7 and day 30, which revealed that Epley manoeuvre, is more effective than vestibularsedative in treatment of BPPV. Conclusions: Epley manoeuvre is more effective than vestibular sedative for treating the patients of benignparoxysmal positional vertigo.
