| Abstract | OBJECTIVE: To assess the short-term efficacy of Semont maneuver for unilateral posterior semicircular canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (PC-BPPV). METHODS: The short-term efficacy of Semont maneuver was compared with a sham procedure in 128 patients with PC-BPPV by using a double-blinded prospective randomized controlled trial in the setting of a neurologic outpatient clinic in China. Analysis was based on the symptomatic status and the Dix-Hallpike maneuver on the fourth day. At this time, patients in both groups with a still positive Dix-Hallpike test were treated with Semont maneuver, and outcome was again assessed on the seventh day. RESULTS: On the fourth day, 55 (84.62%) of 65 patients in the treatment group showed complete resolution of symptoms compared with 9 (14.29%) of 63 patients in the control group. (p < 0.001) 59 (90.77%) of 65 and 52 (82.54%) of 63 patients reported resolution of symptoms in the treatment and original sham group, respectively (p = 0.17). CONCLUSION: Semont maneuver is shown to resolve PC-BPPV effectively, and patients should receive Semont maneuver once the PC-BPPV diagnosis was confirmed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
