Study Notes

Repositioning Maneuver

  • Right posterior maneuver: Sit on the table, turn head to the right 30 degrees, lay on back with head off the table, hold for 30 seconds, turn head to the left, hold for 30 seconds, turn onto left shoulder, hold for 30 seconds, and slowly get up.
  • Left posterior maneuver: Same as right posterior but opposite.
  • Right anterior maneuver: Lay on stomach with head off the table, turn head to the left 30 degrees, hold for 30 seconds, turn head to the right, hold for 30 seconds, turn onto left shoulder, hold for 30 seconds, and slowly get up.
  • Left anterior maneuver: Same as right anterior but opposite.
  • Right horizontal maneuver: (no additional details provided)
  • Left horizontal maneuver: Same as right horizontal but opposite.

Canal Stimulation

  • Right anterior (RA): Patient sits with arm in front, holding thumb at eye level, turns head 45 degrees to the left, moves head downwards while looking at thumb, and repeats.
  • Right posterior (RP): Patient sits with arm in front, holding thumb at eye level, turns head 45 degrees to the right, moves head upwards while looking at thumb, and repeats.
  • Left anterior (LA): Patient sits with arm in front, holding thumb at eye level, turns head 45 degrees to the right, moves head downwards while looking at thumb, and repeats.
  • Left posterior (LP): Patient sits with arm in front, holding thumb at eye level, turns head 45 degrees to the left, moves head upwards while looking at thumb, and repeats.
  • LARP: Patient sits with arm in front, holding thumb at eye level, turns head 45 degrees to the right, moves head upwards and downwards while looking at thumb, and repeats.
  • RALP: Patient sits with arm in front, holding thumb at eye level, turns head 45 degrees to the left, moves head upwards and downwards while looking at thumb, and repeats.

Viewing Types

  • x0 viewing: Patient looks at arm and moves head and arm in the same direction.
  • x1 viewing: Patient looks at a stationary target (such as thumb or dot) and moves head back and forth around 30 degrees.
  • x2 viewing: Patient looks at arm and moves head and arm in opposite directions.

Diamond Gaze Exercises

  • No/no stability pattern: Patient looks at middle dot, turns head left and right equally three times, shifts eyes to each dot, and moves head left and right.
  • Yes/yes stability pattern: Same as no/no stability pattern but moving head up and down instead.
