Video on How the Dix-Hallpike Maneuver Diagnoses BPPV Dizziness




This is the second in a series of videos our practice is producing on inner ear dizziness. This video demonstrates how the Dix-Hallpike maneuver is performed to diagnose BPPV. Also demonstrated are the different types of eye-twitching (nystagmus) that suggests what type of BPPV a patient may have. The first video was on how the inner ear balance system works which can be watched here.

Soon to come are videos specifically regarding treatment of BPPV. Watch this video!
