Abstract

As one of the examinations pertinent to the labyrinthine righting reflex, a special tilt test i. e. The Auto-Tilt Test using the head-inclinometer was introduced herein. In positional vertigo, this test yielded significantly imperfect occurrence of the labyrinthine reflex toward the ipsilateral side of its lesion. In addition, the depressed accuracy of the sensation of deviation which can promote restorative activity was distinctly revealed in the ipsilateral side of the lesion. Data obtained applying this test were informative for routine clinical testing of patients with labyrinthine disorder.
