“…A clinically relevant vestibular paresis was defined as greater than 25% asymmetry between the right-sided and the left-sided responses. 50 findings, a Cochrane analysis 49 and a meta-analysis 46 make no general treatment recommendation for corticosteroids; they may improve only the recovery of canal paresis, 46 and their effects on life quality have not yet been investigated sufficiently. Thus, further randomized controlled trials are necessary.…”

Dizziness is a very common symptom in older adults. Its prevalence increases with age, with approximately one-third of elderly people experiencing the symptom. It may be caused by true vertigo, of peripheral or central cause, pre-syncope, disequilibrium or a combination of these. A detailed history and examination are essential in distinguishing common causes. Providing there is no evidence of central vertigo or of a cardiac cause, further investigation is rarely helpful in diagnosis or management. Management of the patient with dizziness should be holistic; it should not only focus on treatment of the underlying cause but also include other elements such as medication and functional review, and the input of allied health professionals as appropriate.
