Abstract
Introduction: Rotatory chair test is used to evaluate the peripheral vestibular system and central compensation. It is also applied to follow up disease and evaluate specific management in some disorders. Analysis parameters are phase, gain, and asymmetry. This study was aimed to analyze previous researches based on rotatory chair testing protocol and its clinical application. Materials and Methods: The present study had a review design. To find and collect related articles some key words like rotatory chair, central compensation, and nystagmus were used. All searches performed on Google Scholar, Science Direct, EBSCO, Pubmed and Thieme. Results: Fifty eight original papers and 4 review articles were initially found. Finally, twenty of them were selected based on identified inclusion and exclusion criteria. Conclusion: Due to some advantages such as the use of physiological stimulus, the ability to evaluate central compensation with asymmetry, and the ease of performance, rotatory chair can today be easily utilized in evaluating vestibular protocol. Keywords: Rotatory chair, Central compensation, Nystagmus
