description | This study aimed to observe and analyze the effects and outcomes of patients with apogeotropic direction-changing positional nystagmus (apo-DCPN) who received Gufoni maneuver. A total of 91 patients with positional vertigo admitted to the specialized dizziness clinic in Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from February 2014 to August 2017 were included. The immediate treatment responses to the Gufoni maneuver were observed and recorded. The patients in whom the treatment was ineffective were followed up for 4 weeks to observe the outcome of apo-DCPN. In 21 patients, the apo-DCPN was transformed after Gufoni maneuver, and 7 patients developed transformation within 4 weeks of follow-up. Spontaneous remission of apo-DCPN within the follow-up period was observed in 55 patients who were unresponsive to the Gufoni maneuver. The prevalence of migraine was significantly higher in the early remission group (P < .05) and the period between the initial visit and nystagmus remission was significantly shorter in the group of patients with migraine history (P < .05). This study demonstrates that the immediate treatment efficacy of the Gufoni maneuver is poor in positional vertigo patients with apo-DCPN. We believe that the reason for the low efficacy is that the Gufoni maneuver is only effective for some patients with apo-DCPN type HSC-BPPV. In patients with early spontaneous remission and a history of migraine, central positional nystagmus of probable vestibular migraine (VM) or benign recurrent vertigo should be considered for the mechanisms of apo-DCPN generation. |
