RESULTADOS: a) dos 20 pacientes avaliados, 18 (90%) apresentaram queixa de zumbido, 15 (75%) queixa de tontura e oito (40%) queixa de cefaléia; b) houve predomínio de alteração na prova calórica e no sistema vestibular periférico; c) o resultado do exame vestibular esteve alterado em 14 pacientes (70%), sendo, oito casos (40%) de síndrome vestibular periférica irritativa e seis casos (30%) de síndrome vestibular periférica deficitária; d) verificou-se diferença significativa entre o resultado do exame vestibular e o tempo de uso do aparelho de amplificação sonora individual; e) dos cinco pacientes que não referiram nenhum sintoma vestibular, quatro (80%) apresentaram alteração no exame. CONCLUSÃO: ressalta-se a sensibilidade e importância do estudo funcional do sistema do equilíbrio neste tipo de população, uma vez que podem ocorrer alterações na avaliação labiríntica independente da presença de sintomas.
