“…These findings emphasize the necessity of vestibular assessment in hearing-impaired children because the integrity of the vestibular system is a critical factor for motor and psychological development (Wiener-Vacher et al 1996;Casselbrant et al 2000;Shinjo et al 2007;Luxon & Mäki-Torkko 2008;De Kegel et al 2012;Singh et al 2012). The study by De Kegel et al (2012) specifically demonstrated a strong correlation between cVEMP testing and motor performance in hearing-impaired children, with absent cVEMP responses resulting in significant weaker performance on static balance measures.…”

The observed pediatric age correlations underscore the necessity of age-appropriate normative data to guarantee accurate interpretation of test results. The high percentages of abnormal vestibular test results in hearing-impaired children emphasize the importance of vestibular assessment in these children because the integrity of the vestibular system is a critical factor for motor and psychological development.

“…[23][24][25] Different studies showed vestibular dysfunction in patients with sensorineural HL, especially children. 1,24 There are few relevant studies on the association between vestibular deficit and MPSHL in adults. Disorders of the inner ear may result in a variety of manifestations, including vertigo, spatial disorientation, blurred vision, impaired articulation, and hearing impairment.…”

“…They share the continuous mem-branous labyrinth of the inner ear, have similar receptor cells, and are supplied by a common arterial vessel, the labyrinthine artery, which arises from the anterior inferior cerebellar artery (AICA). 1 It is reasonable to hypothesize that inner ear diseases may affect both the vestibular system and the cochlea, or, in other words, that people with cochlear hearing damage may also have vestibular deficiency. Therefore, patients with moderate to profound sensorineural hearing loss (MPSHL) should have their vestibular organ functions tested.…”

Introduction The cochlea and the vestibular receptors are closely related in terms of anatomy and phylogeny. Patients with moderate to profound sensorineural hearing loss (MPSHL) should have their vestibular organ functions tested. Objective To evaluate the incidence of vestibular abnormalities in patients with MPSHL and to study the correlation between the etiology of hearing loss (HL) and a possible damage to the labyrinth. Methods A case-control retrospective study was performed. In the case group, 20 adults with MPSHL of known etiology were included. The control group was composed of 15 adults with normal hearing. The case group was divided into 4 subgroups based on the etiology (bacterial meningitis, virus, vascular disease, congenital). Cervical vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMPs) were used to rate the saccular function and lower vestibular nerve. Results The study was performed in 70 ears, and it highlighted the presence of early biphasic P1-N1 complex in 29 (71.5%) out of 40 ears in the study group, and in all of the 30 ears in the control group (p = 0.001). Regarding the presence or absence of cVEMPs among the four subgroups of patients with MPSHL, the data were statistically significant (p < 0.001). The comparison between the latencies and amplitude of P1-N1 in case and control groups from other studies and in the four subgroups of cases in the present study did not detect statistically significant differences. Conclusion The present study demonstrates that patients with MPSHL have a high incidence of damage to the labyrinthine organs, and it increases the current knowledge about the etiopathogenesis of sensorineural HL, which is often of unknown nature.

“…The values described in the study were similar to those in the international literature, with similar ages, ranging from 4 to 19 years, where the mean P1 latency ranged from 11.3 to 15.4 ms, and the mean N1 latency ranged from 18.2 to 23.7 ms. The mean total amplitude was 126.7 to 160.5, with asymmetry indexes between 16% and 20% (9,10) . This research is justified due to the great importance and applicability in clinical practice of otoneurological research and in order to contribute to the scarce national and international studies on cVEMP in children and adolescents.…”

Introduction:The Cervical Vestibular Myogenic Evoked Potential (cVEMP) has become a reliable and complementary measure of vestibular assessment. The investigation of vestibular disorders in the pediatric population is of great importance because they can have a series of repercussions throughout development. Purpose: To evaluate and analyze cVEMP responses in children and adolescents and compare them among gender, age, and ears. Methods: A cross-sectional study with 35 children and adolescents, 18 females and 17 males, aged 7 to 18 years, with normal hearing thresholds and no otoneurological complaints. All of them underwent a peripheral auditory evaluation and cVEMP. Results: In the analysis, it was observed that the mean latencies of P1 and N1 waves were, respectively, 15.92 ms and 24.32 ms, the amplitude P1/N1 of 36.91 µv and the symmetry ratio presented an average of 22.95%. No statistically significant differences were found comparing gender and ears. The same happened in the asymmetry index between genders. There were also no statistically significant differences in latencies and amplitudes. Conclusion: It was possible to measure values for latency and the amplitude of P1 and N1 waves in children and adolescents. In the present study, there was no statistically significant difference in the comparisons among ears, gender, and age.
