About the Book
Previously known as the Vestibular Learning Manual, the Vestibular Lab Manual, Second Edition provides a review of all major of areas of basic and advanced vestibular evaluation. It is designed to be a systematic, practical application of theoretical knowledge commonly taught in vestibular curriculum of graduate audiology programs. The book is full of high-quality pictures of equipment, patient positioning, and outcome data.
Key Features
- Case studies allow the reader to apply diagnostic results to develop and strengthen clinical problem-solving and interpretation skills
- “Guided Practice” and “Reflection and Review” exercises facilitate active learning of concepts
- Spiral-bound workbook format allows for ease of use
New to the Second Edition
- Three new chapters covering:
- Video head impulse test (vHIT)
- Canolith repositioning techniques
- Reporting results Effectively
- Updated references, oVEMP protocols, and images
This easy-to-use manual is part of the Core Clinical Concepts in Audiology Series and is of great value to audiology students as well as an excellent refresher for practicing clinicians.
About the Author
Bre Lynn Myers, AuD, PhD, CH-AP completed her undergraduate and Master’s degree in Audiology at Bloomsburg University in 2003.
