About this study

This study aims to investigate whether positional tests should be routinely performed on all elderly patients (65 years and older) presenting to primary care with symptoms of acute, episodic, or chronic dizziness or vertigo, unsteadiness, imbalance, and/or an increased tendency to fall in the past 12 months. Study aims to investigate whether diagnostic maneuvers should be performed regardless of the presence of conventional positional vertigo presentation associated with classical cases of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Specifically, the study aims to identify "hidden" cases of BPPV and assess the potential benefits of clinical screening and initial treatment of BPPV in primary care setting thus improving the BPPV-related quality of life and reducing the risk of falls in the elderly population.
