Description
DizzyFIX: Solutions for vertigo caused by BPPV.This DizzyFIX iPhone application is for use by medical professionals. If you suffer from BPPV yourself, and are interested in self-treatment, do not download this app, as it does not work for self-administration of the treatment maneuver.The user interface is not designed to be able to permit self-application of the maneuver, as you cannot see the screen during the maneuver. Instead, purchase our clinically proven and popular self-treatment "hat" device from the DizzyFIX website: http://www.dizzyfix.comFor physicians, this application assists in the performance of the Epley maneuver that is recognized as the primary treatment for BPPV. The application assists the physician in guiding the participant through the correct series of head and body positions that ultimately guide loose vertigo causing particles out of the inner ear and into non-reactive areas. The app also includes a detailed textbook on the diagnosis and treatment of vertigo. The textbook includes videos of common diagnostic maneuvers.The app guides the physician to place the participant's head into a series of precise positions using the accelerometers in the iPhone or iPod touch. The 3D head-model in the interface turns to each goal position, and then will interactively return to facing straight ahead as you approach each correct position.The instructions video is here: http://bit.ly/dizzyfixappOnce again, the DizzyFIX iPhone application is designed for use by medical professionals and does not help you to treat yourself, as you cannot see the screen during the maneuver.
