Clinical Trial Summary

Rehabilitation Of Balance Function In Patients With Persistent Postural Perceptual Dizziness: A longitudinal Study

Description:

this study will be conducted to show the long term effect of combined vestibular rehabilitation incorporating optokinetic stimulation and virtual reality exercises on persistent postural perceptual dizziness patients.

Aim:1.Evaluate the balance control function in patients with persistent postural perceptual dizziness using computerized dynamic posturography.

2.To study effect of rehabilitation using optokinetic stimulation and virtual reality on persistent postural perceptual dizziness patients.

3.To follow up patients after the vestibular rehabilitation therapy to study the persistence of improvement" if any" in patients with persistent postural perceptual dizziness .

Type of the study : prospective cohort and longitudinal study. Sources of data :

Audio-vestibular medicine unit , Sohag University Hospital. Study group : consists of 36 patients age ranged from 18-65 years suffering from symptoms of persistent postural perceptual vertigo.

All subjects will be submitted to:

A- Detailed medical history, full history of dizziness. B-Acoustic impedance test. C-Basic audiological evaluation. D- Vestibular assessment.
