Ménière's disease is a chronic idiopathic condition affecting the inner ear that results in repeated episodes of vertigo. The duration of a characteristic episode of vertigo is between twenty minutes and twelve hours according to contemporary classification systems.1,2 Advancements in the field of vestibular telemetry have allowed the continuous ambulatory assessment of individuals with dizziness, vertigo and balance disturbance.3,4 This article outlines the findings from assessing three patients with Ménière's disease and discusses how the use of vestibular telemetry aided their management.
