IU123 - Revolutionizing Vestibular Testing with ICS Dizcovery

Abstract:
Innovative vestibular technology will be discussed with the ICS Dizcovery system and how it is revolutionizing the VNG testing workflow. It will be discussed how accuracy and precision of patient data is improved due to the use of head mounted targets, complete visual obstruction during vision denied testing and objective skew deviation. A brief product demonstration will be shown to highlight test workflow.

Summary:
With the healthcare delivery model in constant evolution, we can reinforce the Audiologists’ role in vestibular healthcare through face-to-face and telehealth delivery models. The purpose of this seminar is to discuss the advantage of the ICS Dizcovery and ICS Impulse system for vestibular testing. Brief overview may be discussed in different testing modules and guided software with multiple test protocols and interpretation assistance. This course will discuss the difference between the traditional use of other VNG systems with earth-fixed targets versus the use of a head mounted laser with the ICS Dizcovery. Demonstration of vision denied and skew deviation will be completed. Accuracy and precision of test data is essential to effective and timely treatment of the vestibular patient.

Brief Summary of Clinical Takeaways:
The clinical takeaway for this session is to understand the precision and accuracy in patient data with a head-mounted laser for testing and other benefits of the latest technology with ICS Dizcovery.
