6. Aspects of recovery following day care anaesthesia : A clinical and experimental study
Sammanfattning : A new test for the assessment of psychomotor recovery - the perceptive accuracy test - was designed and tested in a group of volunteers. It was found to be reproducible and not associated with any significant learning. LÄS MER
7. Imbalance and fractures in the elderly Effects of decreased vibration sensation and vestibular asymmetry
Sammanfattning : Control of the upright stance and locomotion is a complicated process of muscular activity. The muscular activity is dependant on afferent information from the different sensory organs and interpretation in the central nervous system. Age-related degenerative changes exist in all the domains concerned with control of posture. LÄS MER
8. The vestibular system, a tool to study neurotoxicants in the central nervous system
Sammanfattning : The vestibular and opto-ocular motor (VOOM) system in pigmented rats was investigated. Horizontal eye movements were recorded by the magnetic search coil technique during different kind of stimulations. The dynamics of the vestibular ocular reflex (VOR) and the optokinetic reflex (OKR) as well as the interaction of the two rel1exes were analysed. LÄS MER
9. Balance performance in people with Parkinson’s disease. Effects of subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation
Sammanfattning : The overall aims of this work were to investigate if Deep Brain Stimulation in the subthalamic nuclei (STN) affected balance, fear of falling and falls in people with Parkinson's disease. The effect of STN stimulation alone was investigated in Papers I, II and III. LÄS MER
10. Dizziness and fear of falling: A behavioural and physiological approach to Phobic Postural Vertigo
Sammanfattning : Dizziness is a common problem and it often co-exists with anxiety. Level of anxiety is the best predictor of handicap for dizzy patients. There is diagnostic controversy and few treatment programs for such patients. LÄS MER
