Description
Inclusion criteria for BVP patients were:
Bilaterally reduced vestibular function, as defined by the Bárány Criteria for BVP (Michael Strupp 2017):
- horizontal angular VOR gain < 0.6 measured by the vHIT, and/or
- reduced caloric response (sum of bithermal, 30° and 44°, max. peak slow phase velocity (SPV) on each side < 6°/sec), and/or
- reduced horizontal angular VOR gain < 0.1 upon sinusoidal stimulation on a rotatory chair. At our clinic rotatory chair tests are performed using sinusoidal rotation (0.05 Hertz) with a peak velocity of 60°/sec (Van der Stappen A 2000).
- Disease duration of BVP > 6 months.
Healthy controls (HC). Only subjects with no history of vertigo, scores <5 on the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) and normal hearing thresholds at 0.25 - 8 kHz, based on age and sex (defined by the BS 6951:1988, EN 27029:1991 and ISO 7029-1984 standards), were enrolled in the study.
For both BVP patients and HC the following additional inclusion criteria were applied: 1) Age ≥ 18 years; 2) Fluency in Dutch; 3) No history of neurological diseases (e.g. dementia, Parkinson's disease, cerebrovascular accident, etc.); 4) Absence of clinical signs indicating dementia or mild cognitive impairment.

Cohorts and Interventions
Group / Cohort |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Bilateral vestibulopathy
Patients with bilateral vestibulopathy, according to the Barany Criteria (2017, Strupp).
|
Cognitive tasks for respectively: general cognition and spatial cognition
|
Healthy controls
Subjects without vestibular or neurological diseases (DHI<5), and with normal hearing thresholds according to their age.
|
Cognitive tasks for respectively: general cognition and spatial cognition

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
The Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status for Hearing Impaired Individuals (RBANS-H): total score
Time Frame: 2 years
|
General cognitive assessment, cfr.
Claes et al 2016.
The total-score is standardized with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.
The higher the total score, the better the cognition of the participant.

|
Spatial cognition assessment, cfr.
Hamilton.
Path length and latency are recorded, the higher the worse the spatial cognition of the participant.

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
The Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status for Hearing Impaired Individuals (RBANS-H): index scores
Time Frame: 2 years
|
Cfr. Claes et al 2016.
The subscale are standardized with a mean of 100 and standard deviation of 15.
The higher the score, the better the performance on a specific subdomain of cognition (attention, immediate memory, delayed memory, visuospatial and language)
