Clasification of the vestibular symptoms
Keywords:
Vestibular disorders, vestibular symptoms, vertigoAbstract
The definition of vestibular symptoms in recent decades has undergone significant changes. The same applies to the definition of vestibular disorders related to the last findings in morfopatologiyata and functional assays. They were not unified, which caused problems in the exchange of information. The aim of this review is to provide current information about the unification of all vestibular symptoms and therefore their assembly in order to facilitate their use in the medical community in Bulgaria. This concerns mainly neurologists otorinolaringolozi, general practitioners and physicians with other specialties.
