Reading
The eyes sit still with no beating at rest, in gaze, or after a positional maneuver. A negative positional test does not exclude BPPV — with a suggestive history, the guideline's answer is to repeat the test on another occasion (Bhattacharyya 2017). And a symptomatic patient with no nystagmus is outside the syndrome HINTS was validated in (Kattah 2009): the battery is not interpretable here, and continuous symptoms without nystagmus still warrant a careful general neurological exam and escalation on any other red flag.
