There are also numerous tasks used to quantify balance. For the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory, rather few dizzy people are in a lot of distress. So for the Dizziness Handicap Inventory, nearly everyone who is coming to see us in the "dizzy clinic" feels handicapped. There may be a few who are mainly being seen for tinnitus however. These are mainly people who are dizzy, and whose chief complaint is not tinnitus at all. For these, the distribution is much different (n=854). We also have a large repertoire of patients with tinnitus, where we have obtained the THI. These are not "normal" people - these are mainly people with dizziness. For our population of dizzy patients, the median score is about 40 (out of a total of about 1790 patients). Our clinical "dizzy" practice in Chicago uses the DHI frequently. See also separate pages on cognitive and headache questionnaires. Not everyone who had a ping-pong ball drop on their head (i.e an impact), and has headaches has a concussion. Not everyone who is confused has Alzheimer's disease. Or to put this another way, not everyone who has a headache, is having a migraine. It is not based on a blood test, a genetic test, or a brain image. These are diagnoses based on what a patient tells you -symptoms. For example, lets take migraine, PPPD or MdDS. The difficulty here lies in diagnoses that are all symptoms. They have some symptoms that people with concussion have. In other words, someone who scores highly on, lets say, the "Concussion Impact Inventory", doesn't necessarily have a concussion. Pursuing this idea, it is important not to confuse a symptom inventory with a diagnosis. ![]() Perhaps they have something else - like a subdural, a brain tumor, a sinus infection. One might wrongly think that someone who scores highly on this survey has migraine. For example, the Migraine disability assessment. Some have unfortunate names, as if they did make diagnoses. None of the questionaires or surveys make "diagnoses". Tinnitus Handicap Inventory/Questionnaire (THI description)Ĭomment: This is not a diagnostic test.
