- W3035145846 abstract "Abstract Background Dizziness among elderly patients is primarily treated in emergency and primary care centers. However, the causes and comorbidities responsible for dizziness in the elderly may differ in tertiary health care centers. Objective To determine the subtypes of persistent dizziness and to evaluate the number of contributory causes of dizziness among elderly patients. Methods and materials This observational cross-sectional study comprised of 130 patients aged >60 years. A detailed history of existing comorbidities was obtained. A standardized comprehensive evaluation of all patients was done using an International Delphi procedure. Data from each patient was independently reviewed for major and contributory causes of dizziness. Chi square test was used to find the association between dizziness and various contributing factors. Results Presyncope was the most frequent dizziness subtype (71.5%). Majority of patients showed one dizziness subtype (54.6%) and three contributory causes of dizziness (40.6%). An adverse effect of drug was the most common contributory cause for dizziness (20%). The most frequent underlying cause of dizziness was noted to be cardiovascular disease (40%), followed by peripheral vestibular disease (22.3%) and neurological disease (19%). Sixty six percent of the patients were identified with more than one contributing cause for dizziness. Conclusion Primary care physicians need to anticipate that many elderly dizzy patients can have more than one cause of dizziness. A systematic and planned approach can help the clinician to effectively treat dizziness in the elderly." @default.
