Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Decreased recurrence and improvement of the symptoms of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo in the six month period in the group that underwent the therapy of vestibular stimulation exercises; the experimental group had a lower level of dizziness in the posttreatment, with p <0.05 and a lower incidence of recurrences (p = 0.038) than the control group; the experimental group presented lower level of dizziness in the posttreatment, with p <0.05 and lower incidence of recurrences (p = 0.038) than the control group—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Compare Dizziness Handicap Inventory and Visual Analogue Scale of dizziness ;To analyze the additional effects of vestibular habituation and compensation exercises;To follow the patients for six months in order to observe the recurrence of the crisis;Investigate the performance of Vestibular Rehabilitation;After therapy, nystagmus and positional vertigo disappeared and in the group that performed the associated vestibular exercises the maneuvers did not present recurrence in the follow-up period—
