Vestibulometry

Vestibulometry is a method for diagnosing the condition of a person’s vestibular and auditory system, which allows one to determine the degree of balance and hearing impairment. This method is an important tool in the diagnosis of various diseases associated with the functioning of the vestibular and auditory apparatus.

Vestibulometry is performed by measuring the body's response to certain stimuli. For example, vestibulometry uses rotating chairs that force the patient to rotate in different directions. During the procedure, the patient must stand on a special platform that rotates with the chair.

After the patient is on the platform, he is given special headphones that stimulate the auditory and vestibular systems. The patient must listen to sounds and monitor his balance. If the patient cannot maintain balance, then this indicates problems with the vestibular system.

In addition, vestibulometry can be used to determine the degree of hearing loss. To do this, the patient is given headphones and asked to listen to sounds of different volumes. If the patient has difficulty hearing sounds, this may also indicate problems with the hearing aid.

In general, vestibulometry is an important method for diagnosing various diseases related to the vestibular and auditory systems. It allows you to determine the degree of impairment and choose the right treatment.

Vesiculometry is a method for studying the functions of the human auditory and vestibular systems. The method is based on recording motor and autonomic reactions to sounds and noises of varying strength. Vesiculometry is carried out by irritating the superior semicircular canal of the ear, the horizontal semicircular and labyrinthine sacs with otoliths - pulsating moving pulses of air under pressure. This method evaluates the function of the middle and outer ear both normally and in various diseases. Vesiculometry begins from the auricle, where the semicircular nerve is located. Then the upper and then the lower semicircles are irritated. After this, the actual conduction of the impulse to the fusiform ganglion begins, and then to the intralabyrinal nodes - into the cavity of the middle ear. Thus, this test can be compared with checking for the presence in a person of such senses as vision, smell and hearing
