摘要:

The present study compared the effects of four different mental altering tasks on the speed of the nystagmic slow component during caloric testing in 40 young adults. Subjects were randomly divided into four groups (1 O/group) and stimulated twice in each ear in a counterbalanced manner according to test ear, irrigating temperature, and alerting task. Analysis of the data revealed significant differences between treatment effects on the magnitude of the slow phase velocity of nystagmus. Results suggest that passive listening does not sufficiently alert subjects to ensure the adequate release of nystagmus suppression during vestibular testing.
