简要总结
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is one of the most common types of vertigo, especially in elderly. Therefore the investigators have set the goal to evaluate the prevalence of BPPV and its therapy using the Rotundum device in elderly living in retirement homes. Furthermore the investigators use a questionnaire to evaluate possible predictive signs to improve the diagnosis of this disease.
