We describe a 42-year-old patient with reported "shaking" vision referred due to concerns of possible vestibular system dysfunction. The patient has known history of Usher syndrome type I, bilateral cochlear implants, and severe vision impairment. This case describes an unusual nystagmus previously only reported in individuals with central demyelin...

Simultaneous multifrequency (SiMFy) is a time-saving and reliable stimulus to determine the frequency tuning of ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (oVEMP); however, the absence of 4000 Hz in SiMFy potentially makes it a less potent tool for the diagnosis of superior semicircular canal dehiscence, a pathology with an ever-increasing prevale...

Nonlinear frequency compression (NFC) is a signal processing technique designed to lower high-frequency inaudible sounds for a listener to a lower frequency that is audible. Because the maximum frequency that is audible to a listener with hearing loss will vary with the input speech level, the input level used to set NFC could impact speech recogni...

Vestibular neuritis is one of the most common reasons that someone may experience an episode of acute spontaneous vertigo, with the majority cases impacting only one ear. Cases of bilateral vestibular neuritis are rare and are thought to account for less than 10% of all cases of vestibular neuritis. Skull vibration testing is an efficient means to ...

Falls are a significant health care concern for older adults in the United States. Audiologists are health care providers who are experts in hearing and vestibular dysfunctions, two areas known to be risk factors for falls. It is not known whether audiology patients consider audiology services to be related to falls or whether they consider audiolo...

We previously reported the results of exploratory factor analysis (EFA) of the Hyperacusis Impact Questionnaire (HIQ), the Sound Sensitivity Symptoms Questionnaire (SSSD), and the Screening for Anxiety and Depression in Tinnitus (SAD-T). Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) is necessary to confirm the latent constructs determined using EFA. CFA shoul...

The masseter vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (mVEMP) test evaluates the vestibulomasseteric reflex neural pathway between the sound-stimulated saccule hair cells and the motor neurons of the trigeminal nerve. This study aims to investigate the contribution of mVEMP to the conclusive diagnosis of recurrent vestibulopathy patients that were diag...

Previous studies observed that children with cochlear implants (CIs) have poor language, working memory, and attention skills. The ability to perform cognitive tasks, such as attention and memory, plays a crucial role in the academic achievement and everyday life of children with hearing impairment. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the effe...
