Then with the head hanging down (in the De Klyn posi- tion) 250mg grifulvin v with mastercard, the head is maximally rotated and the neck extended. Assessment: Abnormal auscultatory findings in the common carotid artery, vertigo, visual symptoms, nausea, fatigue, or nystagmus occur- ring during this maximum rotation and extension indicate stenosis of the vertebral artery or common carotid artery. The test is especially important in candidates for treatment (such as traction or manipulative therapy) of cervical spine symptoms associated with vertigo. The verte- bral artery provocation test aids in the differential diagnosis because nausea, vertigo, and nystagmus initially increase but then rapidly de- crease in intensity where a vertebral blockade is present. In the pres- ence of vertebral artery insuf• ciency, the intensity of nausea and vertigo symptoms will rapidly increase within a few seconds. Procedure: The supine patient is asked to raise the legs as high as possible and continuously rotate or plantar flex and dorsiflex the feet.

Patients with compromised vascular function will experience varying degrees of pain and significant ischemia in the sole of the foot on the affected side. After about two minutes, the patient is requested to sit up quickly and let the legs hang over the edge of the examining table. Reactive hyperemia and refilling of the veins will occur within 5–7 seconds in patients with normal vascular function. In pa- tients with compromised vascular function, this reaction will be delayed in proportion to the severity of vascular stenosis.
