Abstract

Introduction:Vestibular impairment has been demonstrated in patients with diabetes mellitus. Vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) is a short latency electromyographic response to sound or vibration stimuli that may reflect otolith organ or related reflex functions. cVEMPs are summation responses recorded from the contracted sternocleidomastoid inresponse to synchronized acoustic stimulation of the ipsilateral ear/saccule.In diabetic patients.

Objective: Here, we asses prevalence of vestibular dysfunction by measuring cVEMP findings in patients with diabetes mellitus typeII.

Methods: This study was carried out on two groups of subjects including 20 adult subjects with diabetes mellitustypeIIand 20 adult subjectsnon-diabetics, both group their aged ranged from 20-60 years.

Results:showed statistically significant difference in cVEMP between diabetes mellitus type 2 control group with increase in latencies of P1 and N1 and decrease in amplitude. 

Conclusion: In diabetic individuals who are asymptomatic and never complained of vestibular dysfunction, cVEMPsis able to identify these patients.
