Impact of Cawthorne-cooksey Vestibular Exercises on Bbs in Pc-bppv Patients with Residual Dizziness

Abstract Posterior canal Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (pc-BPPV) is among the most prevalent vestibular disorders, often resulting in dizziness, visual vertigo, and impaired postural control. Even after successful canalith repositioning, many patients continue to experience residual dizziness and balance disturbances, particularly in posterior canal BPPV (pc-BPPV). This study is aimed to evaluate the impact of Cawthorne-Cooksey vestibular exercises on balance performance, specifically using the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), in patients with pc--BPPV experiencing residual dizziness. Twelve participants, aged between 20 and 60 years and diagnosed with PC-BPPV based on a positive Dix–Hallpike test, were included regardless of gender. Cawthorne-Cooksey vestibular rehabilitation exercises were administered over a 2-week period to address postural instability associated with residual symptoms in pc-BPPV . Assessments were conducted at baseline and post-intervention using the Visual Vertigo Analog Scale, and Berg Balance Scale (BBS). Results: Statistical analysis using mean, standard deviation, independent t-test, and paired t-test revealed significant improvements (p < 0.05) in dizziness perception, postural control, visual vertigo, and both static and dynamic balance following the intervention. Conclusion: Cawthorne-Cooksey vestibular exercises significantly improved balance, as measured by BBS, in pc-BPPV patients with residual dizziness. The study also observed a higher prevalence of pc-BPPV in females, particularly within the 30–40 years age group.
