Can someone confirm this, or set me straight.
With the HINTS test, a positive Head Impulse and Nystagmus test indicate peripheral/vestibular issue while normal results in the setting of acute vertigo indicates a central issue (possible posterior CVA).
But the Test of Skew is opposite, with a positive test (skewed) indicating a central issue.
Right??
