Study Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to analyze the clinical aspects of patients with BPPV associated with migraine. It is our purpose to clarify weather migraine is a risk factor for BPPV if the clinical aspect and the therapeutic outcome is different.
Detailed Description
Two hundred and sixty-three patients with BPPV were enrolled in this retrospective study. All patients' charts were reviewed by independent observer. The type of BPPV and associated problems were noted. Patients with migraine were investigated in terms of age, gender, symptoms, affected side and the cure rate. Their data were compared with those having no migraine. Mean values and standard deviations (± SD) were calculated. One way ANOVA test was used for the analysis. Significance was set at p < 0.005.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Number of patients who had normal vestibular response to provocative tests 7 days after re-positioning maneuver
Time Frame: 7 days
Every patient with BPPV who had positional nystagmus during Dix-Hallpike and head-roll provocative maneuvers will be treated with Epley or barbeque particle re-positioning maneuvers. Balance (positional nystagmus) of patients 7 days after re-positioning maneuvers will be assessed.
