  • Title: [Physiological nature and diagnostic implications of rotational nystagmus].
    Author: Usachev VI, Dotsenko VI.
    Journal: Vestn Otorinolaringol; 2010; (1):58-63. PubMed ID: 20436427.
    Abstract:
    The authors provide a rationale for clinical studies of four types of rotational nystagmus, true vestibular, cervico-vestibular, opto-vestibular, and cervico-optovestibular. A physiological concept of nystagmus during active head rotation is formulated. Negative consequences of vestibular nystagmus as a pathophysiological reaction are discussed. The main criteria for nystagmometric differential diagnosis of peripheral vestibular and central disorders are proposed. Diagnostic potential of the new <<Neuro-KM - Electronystagmograph>> system is demonstrated.
