Abstract

Introduction: Vertigo is estimated to occur in 3% of adults every year. In contrast to dizziness, vertigo is associated with symptoms of peripheral or central balance disorders, while dizziness is associated with cardiovascular, neuropathic, neuromuscular, or psychosomatic diseases. Methods: Data for 123 patients at Hospital were taken retrospectively. The variables studied were demographic data, vestibular examination, audiometry, and vertigo diagnosis. Results: There were 123 vertigo patients consisting of 42 men and 81 women. The average age of the patients was 48.46 years. Most patients were diagnosed with other peripheral vertigo 37.40%, then unspecified disorder of vestibular function 15.45%, BPPV 14.63%, Meniere’s disease 8.94%, dizziness 8.94%, central vertigo 8.13%, and vestibular neuritis 6.50%. The types of hearing loss were Conductive Hearing loss (CHL) 6.10%, Sensorineural Hearing Loss (SNHL) 21.54%, and Mixed Hearing Loss (MHL) 11.38%. Location of hearing loss was unilateral 23.58% and bilateral 26.83%. Mean Pure Tone Average (PTA) of vertigo with hearing loss was 52.54 dB in right ear and 55.96 dB in left ear. Conclusion: Most patients were diagnosed with other peripheral vertigo is female. They had normal hearing. The most common type of hearing loss was SNHL with a mean PTA of 52.54 dB in right ear and 55.96 dB in left ear. Mean PTA in vertigo patients with normal hearing was 18.29 ± 4.24 dB in right ear and 17.55 ± 4.13 dB in left ear, while mean PTA in vertigo with hearing loss was 52.54 ± 29.93 dB in right ear and 55.96 ± 28.01 in left ear.
