Overcoming Barriers to Video Head Impulse Testing in the Pediatric Population, presented in partnership with Cincinnati Children's

---

1.  A catch-up saccade recorded during head movement is defined as: An overt saccade A covert saccade Goggle slippage Artifact

2.  Modifications to consider when testing a pediatric patient include: A stool for the child to rest their feet on A piece of foam to tighten the goggles Testing the child while they remain on their parent's lap All of the above

3.  Pediatric modifications to the visual target during vHIT testing include: Staring at an open window An iPod touch screen with a video playing A character sticker Only B and C

4.  Pupil size is at its maximum around the ages of: 1- 3 years 5 - 8 years 13 - 15 years 40 - 50 years

5.  When testing the right anterior canal, you are simultaneously testing the: Left posterior canal Left lateral canal Left anterior canal All of the above

6.  When assessing the results of vHIT, one should consider: Gain of the response Presence of cover or overt saccades Eyelid artifact All of the above

7.  Using a stationary target, pediatric normative data (CCHMC) is similar to adult normative in most canals except: Left posterior Left anterior Right anterior Right lateral

8.  For which age range do test times take the longest (per CCHMC normative data)? 7-9 year olds 4-6 year olds Adults 10-12 year olds

9.  Which of the following of vHIT is true: vHIT is not a stand alone test, however, gives information pertaining to the vestibular spinal reflex vHIT is not a stand alone test, however, gives information pertaining to the vestibular ocular reflex vHIT can replace caloric irrigations vHIT is used for screening for hearing loss

10.  Which of the following regarding using a video as a visual target for vHIT is true: In the pediatric data (CCHMC), no repeatable saccades were noted Some extraneous and eye blinks may be visible Gain between the video and sticker targets appeared similar (CCHMC) All of the above
