The authors studied 136 patients with sudden deafness over a 6-year period, 44 patients with vestibular signs, such as vertigo or dizziness and 92 patients without vestibular signs.
Equilibrium function was abnormal in 70.5% of the patients with vestibular signs and in only 19.6% of those without vestibular signs, however, there was no significant difference between the two classes in pure-tone average improvement over 30dB.
Other relationships between the results of each examination and hearing improvement are discussed.
