which direction is the physiological positional nystagmus in electronystagmography

Solution

Physiological positional nystagmus in electronystagmography is typically directed towards the ground. This means that when the head is turned to the right or left, the fast phase of the nystagmus is towards the right or left ear respectively. Similarly, when the head is in the supine or prone position, the fast phase is towards the forehead or occiput respectively. This is due to the natural response of the vestibular system to changes in head position relative to gravity.
