Overview
If left untreated, patients may experience spontaneous recovery. Common complications of dizziness include nausea, vomiting, fainting, fall, imbalance and hearing loss and neurological complications following Dix Hallpike or Epley maneuvers. Prognosis is generally good, and the 10-year mortality rate of patients with dizziness is low approximately (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.62; 95% CI, 0.40-0.96)[1].
Natural history
The symptoms of dizziness typically develop gradually over years and may have a history of cardiovascular disease (for e.g; arrhythmia, myocardial infarction, ischemic heart disease, and neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease, migraine, stroke, and epilepsy[2].
