No idea what is name of machine- it obviously is made for this problem. The patient sits in it and a computer is programmed to move the machine around (upside down, etc like a roller coaster). There are probably newer, more improved machines now. I'm just reporting what my husband described to me
My husband had BPPV and was cured in one visit to Dr James Atkins in Celebration, Fl. He walked into the office, described his symptoms, was dx'ed with BPPV, was treated in a machine right then and walked out cured. This was probably 10+ years ago and he has had no more symptoms. The machine put him through different maneuvers and positions. I That is the cure I spoke about in my previous comment. Truly a miraculous machine.
I would never have my pt hold her arm up in the air like that. It contracts the deltoid and makes the muscle harder to inject into. The nurse should've had her rest her arm on the armrest of the chair to relax the muscle.
WTH was the medical reason for giving him a flu shot? How does that help him with his symptoms? I'm an RN. No vaccines for me!
