Abstract

Introduction: Many people suffer from vertigo. Its origin in 85% of cases is otological while in 15% is central etiology. BENIGN PAROXYSMAL POSITIONAL VERTIGO (BPPV) is the most common cause of the true vertigo. In this research we evaluated the RISK FACTORS of acute ATTACK of BPPV. Materials and Methods: This study was performed on 322 patients, presenting with BPPV. Diagnosis was confirmed by history and Dix-Hallpike manoeuvre. The underling RISK FACTORS documented carefully. Data analyzed by SPSS and K.square test. Results: Number of 321 patients (including 201 females and 120 males) with BPPV included in our study. Their average age was 41. They showed symptoms for 1 month to 15 years (mean 8 months). Emotional stress was positive in 34% and trauma was the only risk factor in 8.12% patients. Ear surgery and prolonged journey were respectively the main RISK FACTORS in 7.2 and 12.8% of patients. Conclusion: The confirmed RISK FACTORS of acute ATTACK of BPPV were as trauma, major surgery and ear surgery especially stapedotomy, vestibular neuronitis and prolonged bedrestriction. Meniere was not considered as risk factor. In our study the psychological conflict was the major risk factor for BPPV. Other new RISK FACTORS which introduced for first time included; sleep disorder, fatigue, professional sport, starving and prolonged journey.
