Vestibular Patient Journey: Insights From Vestibular Disorders Association ( <scp>VeDA</scp> ) Registry
The findings reveal a complex clinical landscape of vestibular disorders marked by multiple diagnoses and barriers to effective care. Overlapping symptom profiles across disorders further complicate diagnostic accuracy. Although regression analysis confirmed diagnosis-specific features, neither provider involvement nor treatments aligned consistently with diagnoses, highlighting fragmented care pathways. These findings call for clearer diagnostic pathways, enhanced provider training, and coordinated multidisciplinary care to improve diagnostic accuracy and treatment for vestibular disorders.
