[Analysis of inducement of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo].

To analyze the related factors that may affect the onset of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo（BPPV）. Fifty BPPV patients treated in Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital from May to September 2023 were selected as the case group, and 50 healthy adults were selected as the control group. Relevant information was collected by means of questionnaire survey and medical history inquiry. The two groups were compared in terms of sleep time, night sleep duration, wake times, underlying diseases（hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease, etc.） and negative emotional impact. The proportion of male and female in the case group was 16% and 84%, and that in the control group was 20% and 80%. The mean age of the case group was（54.66±13.39） years old, and the mean age of the control group was（54.42±12.55） years old, ranging from 27 to 80 years old. The sleeping time of the case group was significantly later than that of the healthy group, and the difference was statistically significant（<0.05）. The night sleep duration of the case group was shorter than that of the healthy group, the difference was statistically significant（<0.05）. There was no significant difference in awakening times between the case group and the healthy group（>0.05）. There were more patients in the case group with underlying diseases（54%） and affected by negative emotions（70%） than in the healthy group, and the difference was statistically significant（<0.05）. Late sleep time, short sleep duration at night, accompanied by underlying diseases and negative emotions can affect the onset of BPPV.
