The Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) is a patient-reported outcome measure designed to measure the disability associated with someone with complaints of dizziness, vertigo, or unsteadiness. The measure determines changes due to dizziness related to three domains: functional, emotional, and physical. [1]
Intended Population[edit | edit source]
The DHI is intended as an outcome measure for patients with primary complaints of dizziness, vertigo, unsteadiness, or related symptoms.[2]
Some pathologies or diagnoses related include:
- Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV)
- Vestibular Neuritis and Labyrinthitis
- Neurologic Disorders (such as multiple sclerosis)
- Traumatic Brain Injury or Concussion
- Meniere's Disease
- Persistent Postural-Perceptual Dizziness
- Migraine
Method of Use[edit | edit source]
The DHI is a 25-item self-reported measure with three categories, functional, emotional, and physical. The patient rates their perceived disability due to their dizziness by answering each question with - yes, sometimes, no.

It is recommended patients with scores greater than 10 points are referred to balance specialists for further evaluation. [3]
Further classification of scoring includes:
- Mild Handicap: 16-34 Points
