Filter by:Gaze stability exercise is a medical procedure for persons with unilateral vestibular disturbances such as vestibular neuritis or persons who have had tumors of their 8th nerve. They are a crucial part of the vestibular dysfunction rehabilitation protocols in health centers. These activities which involve turning one's eyes at different angles while having their eyes focused on an optotype are aimed at helping improve the vestibular ocular reflex (VOR), visual acuity during head movements and also reducing vertigo and dizziness. Study aim: This review will be establishing the effectiveness of applying gaze stability with balance exercises procedure among participants who are suffering vertigo due to vestibular neuritis. Methods: Twenty volunteers between the age of 25-59 years old, diagnosed, and confirmed to be suffering from vestibular neuritis and vertigo will be used in this study. Gaze stability exercises will be performed while patients are in a seated position. Each exercise will last for 30 seconds and be done in phases that included; eyeball movement, saccadic eye movement, pursuit eye movement, vergence eye movement, and vestibular-ocular reflex exercise. Balance exercises will be performed in a standing position including both static and dynamic training with or without closing eyes. The following outcome measures for each participant will be assessed pre-and post-treatment after completing four weeks of intervention. They include; Arabic version of Activities-Specific Balance Confidence Scale (A-ABC scale), Arabic version of Dizziness Handicap Inventory (A-DHI), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), and Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living (Katz ADL). The findings will then be subjected to statistical methods and data analysis using the SPSS toolkit. In this study we hypothesis that practicing gaze stability and balance exercises will have a positive influence on balance and activities of daily living among vestibular neuritis patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a previously FDA-approved medication that is known to help with allergy symptoms to see if it can decrease symptoms in patients with Meniere's Disease.
To evaluate the function of vestibular system in patients with chronic suppurative otitis media safe type.
There is paucity of literature in studying the comparative effects of Vestibular Rehabilitation and Virtual Reality. This study will determine the effects of these interventions on dizziness, balance and gait. This study will also deduce the role of vestibular rehabilitation and Virtual reality in subacute stroke patients
Effects of balance training with and without gaze stabilization exercises on clinical outcomes in elderly patients with chronic dizziness: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Observation of the effects of Cawthorne-Cooksey exercises applied after the Epley maneuver on balance, vertigo symptoms, and quality of life in BPPV patients.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of proprioceptive vestibular rehabilitation on balance, functional mobility, posture, sensory profile and quality of life in patients with vertigo due to peripheral vestibular hypofunction.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of APSLXR in participants with Meniere's disease or other Verigo of vestibular origin. Pharmacokinetics will also be evaluated in a small group.
This study aims to explore the possible association between dizziness and head-on trunk-movements and thus, neck movement and if this differs to healthy controls. Additional, the study will examine the reliability and validity of using wearable accelerometers to examine how the head moves relative to the trunk and to collect normative data on head on trunk movement.
To observe the prevention and treatment effect of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) on postoperative dizziness in patients with hemifacial spasm undergoing microvascular decompression surgery, and its possible mechanisms.
