Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is one of the most common types of vertigo, especially in elderly. Therefore the investigators have set the goal to evaluate the prevalence of BPPV and its therapy using the Rotundum device in elderly living in retirement homes. Furthermore the investigators use a questionnaire to evaluate possible predictive signs to improve the diagnosis of this disease.

Evaluation of prevalence of BPPV

Epley/Barbeque maneuver will be performed using the Rotundum Device to assess if subject has BPPV, patient will thereafter be treated for it using the Rotundum Device.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Epley maneuver/Barbeque maneuver

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Subjects will be rotated using the Rotundum Device to perform the previously described maneuvers Epley/Barbeque to evaluate the presence of BPPV.
