• WBR0136  + (Correct. Benign positional vertigo (BPV) i … Correct. Benign positional vertigo (BPV) is the most likely cause of this patient’s vertigo. BPV is not typically associated with hearing loss. Patients have brief episodes of vertigo with positional changes, typically when turning over in bed. This patient had a positive response to the Dix-Hallpike maneuver, which confirms the diagnosis. BPV is due to deposition of calcium debris in the semicircular canals. Medications such as diazepam or meclizine as well as canalith repositioning (Epley’s maneuver) are used to treat the condition. The latter is a series of head rotational positions intended to relocate free floating particles in the semicircular canals.ting particles in the semicircular canals.)
