    Smile Re: BPPV - ANT Canal

    Hi, would be interested to hear more.
    I was under the understanding that Hallpike-Dix positive to left, indicates problem on left. And the direction of beat indicates which canal. ???
    Anyway, normally, you do the manoeuvre in direction of the problem; history positive to left, confirmed by test positive to left = continue with manoeuvre straight away to left.
    Cheers,
    Taimana

    Have just checked what I have written: should have typed "for the left" for better understanding. Which means, once you have the positive finding with the head rotated to left, you start turning head to right etc.
    Hope that wasn't too confusing.
