A one-day maneuver course was held at Antalya Training and Research Hospital as part of the ‘Listen to the Symptoms’ symposium. The event focused on the diagnosis and treatment of vertigo and Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV).
Prof. Dr. Nuri Özgirgin, President of the International Vestibular Association and the symposium, explained that the most common cause of dizziness is a condition popularly known as ‘crystal movement.’ This occurs when otoliths, which help maintain balance in the inner ear, detach and move into the balance canals.
Rather than surgical intervention, the treatment for this condition involves specific maneuvers. The course aimed to provide practical training and awareness to physicians, assistants, and audiologists from various cities to improve patient quality of life.
