Bronstein AM, Pavlou M, 2013, Balance., Handb Clin Neurol, Vol: 110, Pages: 189-208, ISSN: 0072-9752

This chapter addresses the important and undertreated problem of balance disorders. The chapter has a simplified summary of the physiology of balance problems in order to set the scene. The issue of assessment is next addressed with discussion of important tests including the Berg Balance Scale and the Get Up and Go Test, and others. Posturography is discussed as well as assessment of the gravitional vertical. The assessment of vestibular function is of key importance and discussed in some detail. The focus of the chapter is on balance rehabilitation. Re-training of postural alignment and of sensory strategies are key but adaptation of the environment and re-training of cognitive strategies are also helpful in individual cases. Vestibular exercises can also be used. The chapter then critically analyses the efficacy of these treatments in specific balance disorders such as in stroke, Parkinson disease, polyneuropathies, multiple sclerosis, and vestibular disorders. Overall, there is a growing body of evidence that balance rehabilitation improves symptoms, function, and quality of life for those troubled by these disabling problems.

Murdin L, Seemungal BM, Bronstein AM, 2012, Dizziness, Medicine (United Kingdom), Vol: 40, Pages: 431-434, ISSN: 1357-3039

Dizziness and vertigo are common symptoms. In the acute setting, it is most important to make an accurate diagnosis, particularly to distinguish peripheral from central causes of vertigo and to determine which patients require urgent neuro-imaging for suspected stroke. Although the history and physical examination usually yield the diagnosis, on occasion there is diagnostic ambiguity and the clinician must have to hand a list of likely diagnoses in order to decide rationally which specific investigations (e.g. brain imaging) are required. This article outlines the diagnostic approach to common and important conditions that present with acute dizziness, and their management. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
