Seminar description
Otometrics invites you to an exclusive event to explore new and exciting
developments in the area of vestibular testing. Experts in the field discuss
how incorporating the video head impulse test (vHIT) and vestibular- evoked
myogenic potentials (VEMP) in the vestibular test battery has the potential
for full and independent assessment of all of the structures in the peripheral
vestibular system. Join us to learn how cervical and ocular VEMPs along with
vHIT can identify lesions in the three semicircular canals, utricle, saccule, and
two branches of the vestibular nerve in each ear. The information derived
from these new tests along with VNG can enhance the efficiency of diagnosis
and treatment of dizzy patients. The participants will have the opportunity to
experience ICS Impulse first hand.

DAY 1 & 2 (May 5-6 or Oct 13-14)
DAY 3 (May 7 or Oct 15)
Comprehensive guide to administration and interpretation
Demonstration and Head Impulse/
VEMP seminar
This two-day course is for audiologists, technicians, physicians and other healthcare professionals who are involved in performing and interpreting the VNG/
ENG test. The course provides practical information necessary to make the VNG/
ENG test an effective part of the diagnostic process.
We begin at a basic level and proceed systematically through more challenging topics as each step in the administration and interpretation of the test is
discussed in detail, including instructions to the patient, effect of medications on
test results, and identifying and recording of disconjugate eye movements. Common vestibular and central pathologies are reviewed and their manifestations
on different parts of VNG/ENG are described.
healthcare environment.
Learning objectives:
• Perform and analyze the VNG/ENG test accurately and more efficiently

• Identify abnormal findings in different parts of VNG/ENG and describe their
clinical significance

• Recognize and avoid common errors and artifacts in VNG/ENG
• Recognize the need for other vestibular tests, such as head impulse, rotation,
and VEMP testing and correlate their findings with VNG/ENG results
