In this study age-related physiological changes in vestibular evoked myogenic potentials were examined. In order to do this patients with different illnesses and a group of healthy volunteers were divided into two age groups. In one of these groups the test subjects were younger than 60 years, whereas in the other group they were older than 60 years. The test results of both groups were compared statistically and a significant difference was found regarding the positive response of the vestibular evoked myogenic potentials. In older age group, even in the healthy volunteers, the potentials can be triggered significantly less frequently than in the younger test group.
