Abstract

th , 2008. SUMMARY Objective: To use Sensory Organization Test (SOT) by Computerized Dynamic Posturography (CDP) as a monitoring method of analysis in patients with vestibular disorders treated with Vestibular Rehabilitation (VR). Method: A prospective study of 39 patients, aging from 37 to 77 years old, with vestibular disorders submitted to vestibular rehabilitation as treatment modality. Data was acquired by SOT by quantitative analysis before and after Vestibular Rehabilitation. Results: We observed statistically significant increase in values in condition 5, and in the equilibrium score in SOT. These results showed improvement in postural stability. Conclusion: This information shows that SOT by CDP is an adequate method to quantitative analysis to show the vestibular function increase in the Vestibular Rehabilitation.
