Abstract：Objective To report outcomes of treatment of horizontal semicircular canal benign paroxysmal posi-tional vertigo(HC-BPPV)by vestibular rehabilitation training combined with modified Barbecue repositioning maneu-ver.Methods Patients with HC-BPPV admitted to the Department of Otorhinolaryngology,Handan Central Hospital,from December 2018 to December 2020(n=96)were randomly selected to receive modified Barbecue maneuver treat-ment(the control group)or additional vestibular rehabilitation training(the study group).The Dizziness Handicap Index(DHI),resistance index(RI),end diastolic velocity(EDV)and peak systolic velocity(PSV)before and 1 week after treatment,as well as residual symptoms and recurrence within 6 months were compared between the two groups.Re-sults The overall rate effectiveness was 93.75%for the study group,compared to 77.08%in the control group(χ2=5.352,P=0.021).At 1 week and 1 month after treatment,the rates of light-headedness,drowsiness and discomfort,neck stiffness and unsteady gait were all lower in the study group than in the control group(P<0.05 and P<0.01).At 1 month after treatment,DHI-P,DHI-E,DHI-F scores in both groups were lower than before treatment(P<0.01).The scores at 1 week and 1 month after treatment were lower in the study group than in the control group(P<0.01).At 1 month after treatment,RI was lower,while EDV and PSV levels were higher,than before treatment in both groups(P<0.01).At 1 week and 1 month after treatment,RI in the study group was lower than that in the control group,while EDV and PSV were higher(P<0.05 and P<0.01).At 1,3 and 6 months after successful reset,the rate of recurrence in the study group was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Vestibular rehabilitation training combined with modi-fied Barbecue maneuver can improve vertebral artery hemodynamics in patients with HC-BPPV and reduce residual symptoms after successful reset,improving recurrence and therapeutic effects.
