vHIT come indice prognostico del recupero post Disturbo Vestibolare Acuto

Attualmente stiamo valutando se la funzionalità del VOR possa essere messa in relazione con il recupero del paziente e “se ad un recupero di funzione del VOR dinamico corrisponda effettivamente un ripristino della performance posturale del paziente e viceversa”. Poiché è noto che il fenomeno del compenso post-DisturboVestibolareAcuto si realizza a frequenze diverse, che sono descritte patologie in cui il danno è frequenza-dipendente come la Malattia di Ménière, che l'HF-VOR sembra recuperare più lentamente rispetto al LF-VOR studiabile con il BVC e che è stata già descritta una buona correlazione tra cHIT e prognosi e normalizzazione dei sintomi (Mandalà M et al, 2008), è possibile che proprio l’analisi della misura della funzionalità del VOR, eseguita con vHIT, possa essere la più pertinente, in quanto esprime in maniera migliore di altri esami vestibolometrici l’effettivo recupero del paziente post-DVA e può assumere, inoltre, un ruolo prognostico costituendo un’indagine che, laddove patologica in fase cronica, motiva l’avvio del paziente ad un programma rieducativo.

RINGRAZIAMENTI

Grazie a Dio che mi dà doni visibili e invisibili, che vivo e che scordo.

Grazie all'Amore che c'è e che si fa sentire, che circola e che cresce (grazie Giulia, amore mio, amore di Dio).

Grazie alla famiglia e ai parenti.

Grazie all'amicizia e ai fratelli che mi sono donati; l'ultima, per adesso, si chiama Elena Navari, Medico Otorinolaringoiatra, senza di lei e il suo aiuto, oggi, non festeggerei così tanto.

Grazie a Padre Roberto Benamati, fratello, amico, padre e soprattutto “vecchia guardia” maestra di vita, che merita la mia prima futura ricetta da incorniciare.

Grazie a tutti i fiori della mia vita. Che possa riuscire a portare ciò che ricevo come dono e, che mi vada a memoria, riconoscere il mio prossimo: “Date e vi sarà dato: una misura buona, pigiata, colma e traboccante vi sarà versata nel grembo, perché con la misura con la quale misurate, sarà misurato a voi in cambio”. Grazie a chi si dedica con la vita, col servizio e la passione alla cura degli ambienti, delle persone e del creato.

Grazie al Santo Padre Francesco d'Assisi, a tutto il movimento francescano e a tutti i sogni che Dio ha avuto e ha per ciascuno di noi.

Grazie a me che ancora mi meraviglio e che so ritornare ed insistere.

Grazie a chi sa farmi ridere, piangere, correre, camminare, aspettare, guardare, pensare, risuonare, divertire, ballare, giocare e desiderare (le stelle).

Buoni giorni, e che tutto questo sia solo un'altra memoria, perchè non c'è niente che faccia rinascere più dell'Amore alla Vita Nova.
