Abstract

Flourens (1842), in animal experiments, and Joffroy & Servaux (1897), in man, showed that among other symptoms alcoholic intoxication brought about a nystagmus. Bárány (1911) and Bárány & Rothfeld (1913) found that this nystagmus was influenced by the position of the head of the test subject. Clinical observations regarding alcoholic nystagmus were made by Frenzel (1939), Plenkers (1943) and Walter (1954). This investigation was supported by the Swedish Medical Research Council, Project 25X-36-03.
