Abstract:

 

Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the clinical practicability of horizontal video head impulse test in healthy children and to establish normal data. Patients and Methods: A total of 119 children  60 males, 59 females; mean age 10.64±2.8 years; range 6 to 16 years  participated in the study, which was conducted between January 2016 and April 2016. Horizontal vestibuloocular reflex  VOR  was measured with a portable video-oculography device in a seated position in room light. VOR gain was calculated at 40, 60, and 80 milisecond. Refixation saccades were analyzed and participants’ reasons for test failure were recorded. Results: Sufficient and reproducible measurements were acquired for 51 male and 49 female participants  mean age 10.64±2.77 years   100/119 children, 84% . There was no significant difference between right and left ears in terms of median gain values. There was a statistically significant difference between median gain values at 40, 60 and 80 milisecond for right and left ears  p<0.05 . There was no significant difference between male and female participants in terms of median gain values. Conclusion: Horizontal video head impulse test is a practical and tolerable diagnostic tool for evaluating lateral canal functions in children aged between 6 to 16 years.

 

Amaç: Bu çalışmada sağlıklı çocuklarda horizontal video baş savurma testinin klinik uygulanabilirliği değerlendirildi ve normal değerler ortaya kondu.Hastalar ve Yöntemler: Ocak 2016 - Nisan 2016 tarihleri arasında yapılan çalışmaya 119 çocuk  60 erkek, 59 kız; ort. yaş 10.64±2.8 yıl; dağılım 6-16 yıl  dahil edildi. Horizontal vestibülooküler refleks  VOR  oda ışığında, oturur pozisyonda, taşınabilir video-okülografi cihazı ile ölçüldü. VOR kazancı 40, 60 ve 80 milisaniyede hesaplandı. Refiksasyon sakkadları analiz edildi ve katılımcıların testte başarısızlık nedenleri kaydedildi.Bulgular: Yeterli ve tekrarlanabilir ölçümler 51 erkek ve 49 kız katılımcıda  yaş ort. 10.64±2.77 yıl  elde edildi  100/119 çocuk, %84 . Ortanca kazanç değerleri açısından sağ ve sol kulaklar arasında anlamlı farklılık yoktu. Sağ ve sol kulakta 40, 60 ve 80 milisaniyedeki ortanca kazanç değerleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık vardı  p.
