Abstract

Background: fHIT is an easily applicable test battery that indirectly evaluates the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) from a functional perspective.

Aims/objectives: The aim of this study was to Individuals determine the correlation between age and the percentage of correct answers (%CA) obtained in the functional head impulse test (fHIT) in healthy individuals.

Material and methods: A total of 105 volunteers, 50 males and 55 females, between the ages of 18 and 70 years, participated in the study. A Beon Solution fHIT system (Zero Branco (TV), Italy) was used in the study.

Results: In our study, a decrease in the mean %CA was observed in all semicircular canals (SCCs) with increasing age. Between age and mean %CA, a significant negative moderate (-0.311) correlation was observed in lateral SCCs, and a significant negative low (-0.257) correlation was observed in posterior SCCs (p < 0.05). In anterior SCCs, there was no statistically significant relationship between age and mean %CA (p > 0.05).

Conclusions: The present study performed in a healthy population will be helpful in terms of making comparisons in studies to be conducted in various vestibular diseases. It will also be a guide for identifying pathological consequences in vestibular diseases.

健康人功能性脑脉冲试验与年龄的关系。

背景:fHIT是一种易于应用的测试电池，从功能角度间接评估前庭眼反射(VOR)。目的/目的:本研究的目的是确定健康个体在功能性脑脉冲测试(fHIT)中获得的正确答案百分比(%CA)与年龄之间的相关性。材料与方法:共有105名志愿者参与研究，其中男性50名，女性55名，年龄在18 - 70岁之间。本研究采用Beon Solution fHIT系统(Zero Branco (TV)， Italy)。结果:在我们的研究中，随着年龄的增长，所有半规管(SCCs)中CA的平均百分比都有所下降。年龄与平均CA %之间，在侧SCCs中观察到显著的负中相关性(-0.311)，在后部SCCs中观察到显著的负低相关性(-0.257)(p 0.05)。结论:本研究在健康人群中进行，将有助于在各种前庭疾病的研究中进行比较。它也将是一个指南，以确定病理后果在前庭疾病。

期刊介绍： Journal of Vestibular Research is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes experimental and observational studies, review papers, and theoretical papers based on current knowledge of the vestibular system. Subjects of the studies can include experimental animals, normal humans, and humans with vestibular or other related disorders. Study topics can include the following: Anatomy of the vestibular system, including vestibulo-ocular, vestibulo-spinal, and vestibulo-autonomic pathways Balance disorders Neurochemistry and neuropharmacology of balance, both at the systems and single neuron level Neurophysiology of balance, including the vestibular, ocular motor, autonomic, and postural control systems Psychophysics of spatial orientation Space and motion sickness Vestibular rehabilitation Vestibular-related human performance in various environments
