Dizziness is among the most frightening events a person can experience. Visions of a heart attack, stroke, brain tumor or other catastrophic health problem flash through the minds of the patient and their family. Dizziness can result in a fall and even a trip to the emergency room. Important information to provide to the physician includes events leading to the initial attack of dizziness, the duration of the spell and any associated change in hearing or tinnitus. Most dizziness is caused by the disruption in function of the inner ear balance center.

The US Public Health Service estimates that one third to one half of fall-related injuries are preventable. Beyond falls, dizziness and balance disorders are a major source of suffering and medical cost.
