Laboral outcome after acute unilateral vestibulopathy.

Sixty-five adult patients who had acute peripheral vestibulopathy (APV) were followed-up to determine their functional outcome. During the acute phase, they were treated with betahistine and mobilization. In the entire study population, APV was not significantly associated with a change in occupational activities, physical work or driving ability. Older individuals had significantly attributed a change in work to disease other than APV. Change attributed to APV occurred significantly more frequently in women than in men. The therapeutic approach seems beneficial. Language: en
