Summary Introduction
Case summary:
Brian Rhen (42 age) was diagnosed with benign paroxysmal vertigo (BPPV). Head trauma can be responsible for the BPPV. The vertigo is experienced at greater scale with the movement of the head. Mr. Rehen reports his problem to a neurologistand recommends for a test called Dix-Hallpike maneuver. During this test, the neurologistchecks nystagmus as he makes specific rotations of his head.
Characters in the case:
Brian Rhen and a neurologist.
Adequate information:
Mr. Rhen was diagnosed with BPPV, which was caused by head trauma. He experienced vertigowhile rolling on the bed or turning his head from side to side while sitting. These movements provoke the sensations of a spinning wheel and lead to cause nausea.
To determine:
The ear is divided into three compartments and out of these three compartments one is involved in the Mr. Rhen’sBPPV.
