The most frecuently tests used to study the vestibular system, with videonystagmographic register, are the caloric and rotatory ones.We have carried out a comparative study of the kinetic tests through a sample of 41 patients without vestibular pathology, stratified by age and gender. The performed rotational tests have been: Constant/cycles, postrrotatory test, increasing, decreasing and constant test.We have not observed age or gender influence on the results. We give the numeric results of these tests.The obtained data allow to conclude that the information given by the increasing and decreasing pendulous test is similar, phenomenon that doesn't happen in the rest of the practiced tests. We also study the habituation phenomenon to a know stimuli. We point out the importance of each laboratory to have their tests done previously in a normal control group in order to compare the results when performing them in pathological patients. |
