Patients who had disorders of the vestibular system with a component of benign postural vertigo as a symptom were studied, using an examination table suitable for the canalith (otolith) repositioning maneuver as described by Epply, followed by lack of recumbency for 48 hours. The patients regularly had resolution or decreased intensity of symptoms, as did those described by Epply. A repeated positioning maneuver may be needed in some of the patients. The application of a vibrator, as previously described has not been found to be essential.
对那些患有前庭系统疾病且以良性阵发性眩晕为症状之一的患者进行了研究。使用了一张适合进行如埃普利所描述的半规管耳石复位手法的检查台，之后48小时保持非卧位。这些患者的症状通常会缓解或症状强度减轻，正如埃普利所描述的患者那样。部分患者可能需要重复进行复位手法。如前所述，使用振动器并未被发现是必需的。
