Influence of Vibration to the Neck, Trunk and Lower Extremity Muscles on Equilibrium in Normal Subjects and Patients with Unilateral Labyrinthine Dysfunction.

To investigate the role of proprioceptors of different skeletal muscles in postural control, in normal subjects and patients with unilateral labyrinthine dysfunction (ULD), the effect of vibration on these muscles was studied by postulography. The subjects comprised 59 normal subjects and 12 patient...

      ab: To investigate the role of proprioceptors of different skeletal muscles in postural control, in normal subjects and patients with unilateral labyrinthine dysfunction (ULD), the effect of vibration on these muscles was studied by postulography. The subjects comprised 59 normal subjects and 12 patients with ULD due to resection of acoustic tumours. Sagittal body sway was observed during vibration to the triceps surae, tibialis anterior and upper dorsal neck muscles. No significant change in sway was observed in the frontal plane in normal subjects. Significant differences between normal subjects and patients were found on stimulation of the muscle groups of triceps surae and biceps femoris during vibration. In patients with ULD, vibration to the dorsal neck muscles caused a deviation towards the diseased side. It can be speculated that the upper dorsal neck muscle plays an important role in maintaining the body balance in the frontal plane in patients with ULD. On the other hand, the lower extremity muscles, especially the muscles on the dorsal side of the body, play a significant role in adjusting the standing posture in the sagittal plane.
