In medicine, the caloric reflex test (sometimes termed "vestibular caloric stimulation") is a test of the vestibulo-ocular reflex that involves irrigating cold or warm water or air into the external auditory canal. This method was developed by Robert Bárány, who won a Nobel Prize in 1914 for this discovery.
