Filter by:Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is characterized by short, recurrent and intense episodes of vertigo. Repositioning maneuvers have been used for its treatment however, evidence indicated recurrence with these maneuvers. However, the effectiveness of this intervention for improving dynamic and static balance in patients with BPPV is unknown. Vestibular rehabilitation through Caw-throne and Cooksey exercises improves dizziness, balance and gives postural stability. This study aims to determine effects of these exercises in improving the residual symptoms of dizziness and balance impairments after CRM. This randomized controlled trial will recruit patients through convenience sampling. Diagnosed patients of BPPV will be confirmed for inclusion through Dix-Hallpike test. Patients presenting with other neurological, orthopedic or metabolic conditions, patients who have had exposure to any balance exercises or other forms of training that can influence results will also be excluded to limit confounding factors A sample of 26 patients will be taken and divided into two groups each with 13 patients. Group A will receive conventional physical therapy while group B will receive Vestibular Rehabilitation exercises with the conventional physical therapy protocol. The conventional physical therapy protocol will include Cervical stretches and Basic Balance Exercises. The session will be around 40 min on each patient with three session per week on alternate days.The study will evaluate patients through Vertigo symptom Scale (to identify vertigo), Dizziness Handicap Inventory (to identify dizziness),Berg Balance Scale (to identify balance and risk of fall). The data will be analyzed using SPPS software.
Comparison of treatment efficacy of an automated robotic maneuvering system (RMS) repositioning chair versus manual positioning maneuvers in Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo.
The aim of this research is to assess effects of Oculomotor and VOR exercises on vertigo, dizziness and balance in patients with BPPV. Randomized controlled trial was conducted at Hameed Latif Hospital, Lahore. The sample size 32 participants which were divided into two groups, 16 participants in traditional physical therapy group and 16 in oculomotor and vestibular ocular reflex exercises group. Study duration was of 6 months. Sampling technique applied was non-probability consecutive sampling technique. Only 30-70 years individuals with Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) were included. Tools used in the study are vertigo handicap questionnaire, visual vertigo analogue scale, dizziness handicap inventory, berg balance scale and dynamic gait index. The data was analyzed using SPSS.
The purpose of the study is to determine physical and mental health issues of U.S. embryologists related to their occupational characteristics, and how workplace fatigue and burnout may affect their quality of life, cynicism, interactions with patients, attention to detail, and lead to human error, the cause of the most severe IVF incidents that often make headlines and result in costly litigation. It will also correlate how the current manual workflows contribute to these health issues, and what measures can be taken to improve both working conditions and embryologists' health, and, therefore, improve patient care.
: Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo is a condition related to vestibular system accompanied by dizziness, tinnitus and balance problems leading to increased fall risk and potential disability. Various treatment options are available including pharmacotherapy and vestibular rehabilitation with varied results
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of a combination of aminobutyric acid, glutamic acid, calcium, thiamine, pyridoxine and cyanocobalamin as adjuvant therapy for vertigo comparatively to ginger under a double-blind randomized study design.
This study will be carried out prospectively on patients who applied to the cardiovascular surgery polyclinic and the carotid-vertebral artery doppler ultrasound due to the vascular problem. All patients will fill "Balance Disorder Scan Survey" and "Vertigo-Dizziness Imbalance Questionnaire-SS". Patients who score 1 and more are directed to the ear nose throat polyclinic and detailed differential diagnosis. Those who score 0 will be in control group.
In addition to the channelize reposition maneuvers (KRM) that will be applied by the physician in patients diagnosed with Benign paroxysmal positional Vertigo (BPPV), the aim of the study is to investigate the effect of vestibular rehabilitation exercises that will be October based on telerehabilitation by the physiotherapist.
Vestibular disorders are among the most common causes of disability in society and affect over 50% of the population over the age of 65 and a significant percentage of the younger population. Vestibular disorders have a dramatic impact on daily life impacting work, relationships, and even activities of daily living.The OtoBand has shown promise and might be beneficial for treating or improving the course of recovery from vestibular disorders. This study seeks to quantify the effect of the study device, the OtoBand, on objective measures of dizziness and vertigo in patients with vestibular dysfunction. The study will be conducted at a single-site and will be a blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled design in which participants do not know if they are receiving bone conducted stimulation 1) at a therapeutic level or 2) at a non therapeutic level.
This study aimed to investigate whether there is a relationship between nystagmus intensity and vestibular-ocular reflex gains by comparing Videonystagmography and video head impulse test in patients with posterior semicircular canal-benign paroxysmal positional vertigo.
