[Electronystagmographic values of the caloric vestibular response in the cumulative phase in healthy people].

Cumulative phase nystagmic responses to caloric stimulation was examined in 72 healthy subjects without any balance disorders and aged 15-55 years. After detailed problem-oriented anamnesis had been taken, vestibular apparatus function was examined by caloric water stimulation using its standard values (44 degrees C, 30 degrees C and if necessary, 18 degrees C) together with electronystagmographic registration of nystagmus. During each labyrinth caloric stimulation, data on vertigo, nausea and vomiting have been recorded. Results have shown that there were 37-74 nystagmic jerks to caloric stimulation, and 24-62 to cold stimulation.
