Purpose: The CMI (Cornell Medical Index) is a self survey method used to study a patient's physical and mental status. In this study, we investigated what might affect dizzy patients physically and mentally by analyzing the CMI.<BR>Targets and methods: We randomly selected 100 cases (35 male,65 females) from 722 patients who complained of dizziness and visited the Department of Otorhinolaryngology at Aichi Medical University from January 1,1996 to December 31,1997. These patients were given the CMI and the results were analyzed.<BR>Results: The mental score was significantly more positive than the physical score in many cases, especially in the 50-59 year old patients. In the physical score, most patients complained of stiff muscles in the neck or back.<BR>Conclusion: From the results of the CMI, we found that many dizzy patients have some kind of mental or physical problem besides dizziness. These results emphasize the importance of treating the whole patient, and not just focusing on the dizziness.
