| 释义 |
The Semont maneuver, like the Epley maneuver, aims to cure benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Repeated treatments may be required and doctors often teach their patients the techniques if they get recurrent episodes. These maneuvers are designed to reposition otoliths in the posterior Semicircular canals. There are different maneuvers for those in the lateral (horizontal) canals. Instructionsa) Turn your head 45 degrees horizontally toward the unaffected ear. b) Then tilt 105 degrees so that you are lying on the side of the affected ear with your head hanging and your nose pointed upward. After dizziness stops, hold this position for 5 minutes. c) Then move quickly via the seated position, holding your head in place, until you are lying on the side of the unaffected ear with your nose pointed to the ground. After dizziness stops,hold this position for 5 minutes. d) Then slowly move back to the seated position. 1 : Ear procedures |
