  • Title: Dizziness and vertigo: an epidemiological survey and patient management in the emergency room.
    Author: Crespi V.
    Journal: Neurol Sci; 2004 Mar; 25 Suppl 1():S24-5. PubMed ID: 15045616.
    Abstract:
    Dizziness and vertigo are frequent causes of presentation at the emergency room, with an incidence in the Vimercate district, Italy, close to 3.5%. The basic management of the "dizzy" patients in the emergency room includes a detailed history and an accurate physical/neurological examination, with the aim to identify "at risk" patients who require further diagnostic procedures and/or immediate admission to the hospital.
