Relationship Between Short-Term Postural Responses to Noisy Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation at Varying Current Intensities and Its Prolonged Effects in Patients With Peripheral Vestibulopathy
In patients with peripheral vestibulopathy, the beneficial effect of prolonged nGVS on standing postural control is closely related to short-term responsiveness to nGVS across a wide range of current intensities. In particular, when the optimal stimulation intensity lies between 100 and 1700 μA, this relationship appears strongest.
