Diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms in vertiginous patients
Vertigo is a serious differential diagnostic problem. Particularly in acute vertigo, serious undrelying condtions, like stroke in vertebrobasilary circulation must be excluded. Despite this fact, majority of vertiginous problems are not life threatening. Based on knowledge of basic diagnostic algorhitms, correct diagnosis and treatment of vertigo can be done in outpatient care.
