Abstract
A posturografia tem sido utilizada na avaliação de pacientes com vestibulopatias. OBJETIVO: Avaliar o equilíbrio corporal à posturografia do Balance Rehabilitation Unit (BRU TM) em pacientes com vertigem posicional paroxística benigna (VPPB). Desenho de Estudo: Caso controle prospectivo. MATERIAL E MÉTODO: Estudo transversal controlado em 45 pacientes com VPPB e por um grupo controle homogêneo constituído de 45 indivíduos hígidos. Os pacientes foram submetidos à avaliação otoneurológica, incluindo a posturografia do Balance Rehabilitation Unit (BRU TM). RESULTADOS: A média dos valores da área de elipse e da velocidade de oscilação no grupo experimental foi significantemente maior (p < 0,05) do que a do grupo controle em todas as condições avaliadas, com exceção da velocidade de oscilação em superfície firme e estimulação sacádica (p = 0,060). CONCLUSÃO: A posturografia do Balance Rehabilitation Unit (BRU TM) possibilita a identificação de anormalidades do controle postural em pacientes com vertigem posicional paroxística benigna.
Posturography has been used in the evaluation of patients with vestibular disorders. AIM: To evaluate balance control with the Balance Rehabilitation Unit (BRU TM) posturography in patients with Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo. Study design: Prospective case-control. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional controlled study was carried out in 45 patients with BPPV, and a homogeneous control group consisting of 45 healthy individuals. Patients were submitted to a balance function evaluation by means of the Balance Rehabilitation Unit (BRU TM) posturography. RESULTS: The mean values of the ellipse area and the sway velocity in a firm surface and saccadic stimulation (p = 0.060). CONCLUSION: The Balance Rehabilitation Unit (BRU TM) posturography enables to identify postural control abnormalities in patients with BPPV.
