OBJECTIVE: We aimed to clarify the burden of vertigo in patients' homes.
METHODS: This was a questionnaire survey among patients with vestibular vertigo. Four main questions were prepared. Q1: Where did you first notice vertigo? Q2: Where have you had the most difficulty with vertigo in your home? Q3: Where do you have difficulty at present? Q4: What household equipment have you used as a countermeasure to prevent further problems with vertigo?
RESULTS: Sixty patients completed the questionnaire. Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) was most common among respondents, followed by Ménière's disease. Q1: Most patients with BPPV first noticed vertigo in the bedroom; patients with other diseases first noticed vertigo in the living room. Q2: Both groups previously had the most difficulty with vertigo in the same locations as in Q1; these differences were significant between Q1 and Q2. Q3: Both groups had the most difficulty on stairs. Q4: Handrails were the most often used equipment for vertigo in both groups. There was no significant difference between Q3 and Q4.
CONCLUSION: Our data revealed that the locations of risks differ among patients with vestibular disorders. Handrails were considered the most important equipment to prevent problems with vertigo.
