Health education intervention and its impact on patients with unilateral vestibular dysfunction: An information-motivation-behavioral model approach.

Unilateral vestibular dysfunction is a one-sided impairment of vestibular function in one ear. Incorporating health education in treatment and rehabilitation plans can improve vestibular function, keep negative emotions at bay, and reduce the extent of the condition. This letter investigates the impact of the information-motivation-behavioral skills model as a medium for health education on patient outcomes. While offering encouraging observations, there are certain limitations, such as the study's retrospective design, small sample size, use of subjective measures, and lack of longer follow-ups that challenge the cogency of the study. The study is a step toward transforming vestibular dysfunction treatment through health education.
