This recent study by Marcelli et al (2024, Audiological Research) describes the bedside SHIMP (IR-cSHIMP), a simple yet highly effective clinical protocol for testing horizontal and vertical semicircular canals using standard infrared video Google systems.
Key Takeaways:
IR-cSHIMP simplifies HSCCs/VSCCs testing.
Utilizes widely available IR video goggle systems.
Has high sensitivity and specificity in discriminating between normal and pathological responses
allows streamlining of vestibular testing and improved diagnostic accuracy.
