Abstract

Objectives: To describe the current status of depression in patients with vestibular dysfunction. Subjects and research methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on 175 patients diagnosed with vestibular dysfunction and treated at Bach Mai Hospital from August 2024 to March 2025. Results: The majority of participants were female (69.7%), with a mean age of 57.2 ± 13.6 years. Most patients resided in rural areas (65.1%). According to ICD-10 criteria, 23.4% of the patients were diagnosed with depression. Among the core symptoms of depression, reduced energy, increased fatigue, and loss of interest or pleasure were the most prevalent, occurring in 95.1% and 92.7% of patients. Common depressive symptoms such as eating disorders, decreased concentration, and sleep disturbances were also highly prevalent, with rates of 95.1%, 92.7%, and 85.4%, respectively. The most frequent somatic symptom was worsening of depression in the morning. Conclusion: Depression is a common comorbidity among patients with vestibular dysfunction, significantly impacting their quality of life and treatment outcomes.
