Why Patients Pass vHIT But Fail fHIT — The Clinical Truth Behind Functional Head Impulse Testing

By mohammed.siraj on 16th Mar 2026

The Functional Head Impulse Test (fHIT) goes beyond traditional vestibular assessment. Instead of only measuring eye-movement responses, fHIT evaluates real-world visual-vestibular performance — how well a patient can maintain visual clarity during rapid head motion.

At Taevas Life Sciences and Equidor Medtech, we integrate advanced diagnostic tools like EquiFHIT, EquiCOG, EquiCCG and Equipoise to help clinicians objectively evaluate balance, vestibular stability, and neurological integration.

This video explains:

What fHIT actually measures

Why conventional tests often miss what fHIT reveals

How clinicians can use fHIT to diagnose functional deficits

How fHIT supports targeted vestibular rehabilitation and fall-risk reduction

If you’re a clinician specializing in ENT, Neurology, Audiology, Physiotherapy, or Vestibular Rehabilitation — this is essential knowledge for objective and data-driven balance diagnostics.
