The focus of this publication on Neuro-Otology in Neurologic
Clinics is on the patient presenting for urgent or emergent care
with a chief complaint of new, previously-undiagnosed dizziness or
vertigo. Intent is to emphasize throughout the issue five primary
components of initial diagnosis and management: (1) Epidemiology,
differential diagnosis, and disease definitions; (2) Bedside
clinical features that differentiate dangerous from benign causes;
(3) Appropriate use of advanced diagnostic tests (including
imaging, vestibular tests) and consultations; (4) Application of
early treatments (manipulative, pharmacologic, rehabilitative); and
(5) Acute disposition strategies, including determining need for
admission and urgency of follow-up. Articles have a consistent
architecture to highlight key points: 1) Case Scenario (with a
representative case example; videos are presented with many of
these); 2) Prevalence & Pathomechanisms; 3) Definitions &
Diagnostic Criteria; 4) Bedside & Laboratory Diagnostic Tests;
5) Acute Treatment Options (including manipulative, pharmacologic,
rehabilitative); and 6) Triage & Disposition (including
referrals and follow-up). The articles are presented with four
major parts: Overall approach to acute dizziness and vertigo;
Episodic vertigo and dizziness; Acute, continuous vertigo and
dizziness; and Case unknowns. Among the topics covered are: Bedside
evaluation; Transient ischemic attacks; Vestibularl neuritis and
labyrinthitis; Stroke; Novel approach to diagnosing the acutely
dizzy patient. David Newman-Toker leads this publication with
associate editors renown in their fields - Kevin Kerber, William J.
Meurer, Rodney Omron, and Jonathan Edlow.
