Brief summary
Exploratory posturological, neurosensory, cognitive, emotional, personality and general evaluations (quality of life). The investigators will characterize a sensory profile quantified by one or more scores from a multi-parameter baysian approach. Each parameter and these scores will be correlated to the type of vestibular damage and its recovery in order to establish diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic follow-up markers.
Detailed description
This is an exploratory neurophysiological work that aims to identify diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic markers in vestibular pathology. Theinvestigators wish to characterize the neurosensory profile of individuals using new exploration paradigms provided by a new posturology platform coupled with virtual reality scenarios and by proposing a complete transversal approach in terms of evaluation of the subjects: personality, cognition, emotion including the depressive state, sensory strategy, general data. Baysian statistical approaches and linear mixed model will be used to determine markers of sensory profile correlated to the vestibular damage for diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic follow-up. The investigators aim to be able to better characterize the cognitive-emotional and sensory deficits expressed by the vertiginous and unstable patients, to integrate it into the evaluation of the vestibular pathology, to use these markers to better discriminate the underlying physiopathological mechanisms, and to improve at the same time the diagnosis of the functional attack and the rehabilitation follow-up of the patients.
