Do we need to consider head-on-body position, starting roll position and presence of visuospatial neglect when assessing perception of verticality after stroke?

CONCLUSIONS: HOB position and the presence of SRP and VSN are important factors to consider during SVV and SPV measurements. Assessment with a neutral HOB position leads to more accurate results. HOB position and SRP influence the results of SVV and SPV differently in individuals with and without VSN, which highlights the relevance of VSN assessment.PMID:37671676 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2023.2253622
