Vestibular Autorotation Test (VAT)
Many Primary Care physicians seek a diagnostic screening tool to accurately identify the source of dizziness, vertigo, and/or balance disorders. To pinpoint the cause of these disorders, we need a tool to help us examine the vestibular system. Statistically speaking 85% of dizziness compalints are caused by inner ear disturbances. Therefore the vestibular system should be the first place to examine.
VAT offers a complete and easy-to-use screening tool to test for correct functioning of the vestibulo-ocular reflex. The most comprehensive approach from a clinical standpoint is to employ the Vestibular Autoration Test (VAT) to examine the vestibular system. This test has been performed for more than twenty years.
