Pallavi Chalivendra, Sai Sailesh Kumar Goothy, Sudhir Gawarikar.


Abstract
Background: Assessment of the psychological and cognitive functions will give an indication of the development of vertigo. However, to support this view, there is very less literature available.

Aim and Objective: The present study assesses the psychological and cognitive parameters in patients with vertigo.

Materials and Methods: Sixty cases of vertigo within the 50 and 70 years and 60 age-matched non-controls were part of the study. A spatial and verbal memory test was administered to assess cognitive functions. DASS 42 was used to assess the psychological parameters.

Results: Negative psychological emotions are significantly higher in vertigo patients. Spatial memory was significantly lower in the cases. Verbal memory was significantly lower in the cases.

Conclusion: The study results suggest that there were higher levels of depression, anxiety, and stress and significantly lower levels of cognitive functions in the patients with vertigo when compared with healthy controls. The study suggests considering the psychological and cognitive parameters in diagnosing and managing vertigo.

Key words: Depression; Anxiety; Stress; Cognition; Vertigo
