Abstract

Introduction: Multiple factors have been related to the development of recurrence of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Objective: To determine the association between therapeutic failure of canalicular repositioning maneuvers (CRM) with sociodemographic and clinical variables in patients with a diagnosis of BPPV. Design: Observational retrospective cohort study. Materials and methods: Review of medical records of the vertigo clinic of the Orlant Clinic, Medellín - Colombia. Results: 41 patients with a diagnosis of BPPV who underwent CRM and clinical follow-up between 1 and 8 weeks were included. 90.2% were female, with a median age of 58 (± 18.3) years, use of vestibulosuppressants was found in 68.3%, betahistine being the most consumed (43.9%). 51.2% of patients presented therapeutic failure, identifying an association with the total number of CRMs performed and the use of a mastoid vibrator with (p < 0.001), taking into account that the patients improved clinically at the end of follow-up with a mean of 77% (p < 0.001). No statistically significant associations were found with the rest of the variables. Conclusion: There was no association between therapeutic failure and the variables studied except number of CRM, use of the mastoid vibrator and final clinical improvement, possibly because the mastoid vibrator is applied to patients in whom there are persistence of symptoms and signs with the triggering maneuvers for unclear pathophysiological factors, finally achieving clinical improvement with more than two CRMs.
