Is clinical HIT as good as vHIT in the emergency room?
Establishing the cause of acute vestibular syndrome (AVS) is critical in the first few hours of presentation in the emergency department. The first question to ask is, “is it due to a peripheral vestibular pathology or a stroke?” This is...HeadStar VHIT goggle
The HeadStar monocular goggle offers regular VNG as well as Video Head Impulse Test capability with its high-resolution camera. It is lightweight and comfortable, delivered with a cover for vision denied, and is a robust goggle for daily use in...EyeSeeCam Video Head Impulse Test (vHIT)
The video head impulse test (vHIT) is a powerful clinical tool to assess vestibular function. EyeSeeCam vHIT provides quick and objective measurements of the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR). It consists of a lightweight, non-slip goggle, with a 220 Hz camera for...Video Head Impulse Test (SYNAPSYS VHIT)
SYNAPSYS VHIT is a unique system that represents a fundamental step forward in the evaluation of the vestibular system. It does not require the patient to wear any goggles: all results are obtained from the analysis of the patient’s head...Clinical utility and practical interpretation of the video head impulse test
The head impulse test (HIT) is an essential bedside test to detect peripheral vestibular deficits. The video head impulse test (vHIT) is a new tool quantifying the HIT. In this article Maria Heuberger and colleagues point out the clinical utility...
Selective otolith dysfunctions objectively verified
Three cases of patients with acute onset vertigo are presented here. The presenting symptoms are described for each case along with the results of vestibular and audiologic examination. This paper focuses on the results of vHIT in the plane of...Recent changes in vestibular science and assessment
Clinical assessment of the dizzy or imbalanced patient is all about the patient’s history. History, history, history. But what about puzzling cases when we feel we need more information? Sally Rosengren gives us a rundown of the vestibular tests which...

Vestibulo-ocular reflex and postural control in deaf children
The authors evaluated the impact of canal paresis detected by video head impulse test (vHIT) on postural control tested by platform posturography in children with sensorineural hearing loss. The study included 55 children (4-16 years old) with variable degrees of...
The vestibular system is not immune to chronic otitis media
It is well recognised that chronic otitis media (COM) is a risk factor for sensorineural hearing loss. Studies on the effect of COM on vestibular function have been beset by design biases. The authors designed a case control study to...
