Remanded (sent back)
The Board has ordered a new VA examination to address the Veteran's dizziness/loss of consciousness, including its relation to service and any aggravation by his service-connected conditions.
The deciding factor: The previous remand did not provide sufficient guidance for the VA examiner to form an opinion on the issues raised in the appeal.

What this means for you
A remand is not a loss. The Board sent the case back for more development — often a new exam or missing records — before making a final decision. Many remands later end in a grant, and the decision spells out exactly what the Board wanted to see.
