NCT ID: NCT04875013 Completed - Dizziness Clinical Trials

Interactive Rehabilitation for Adults With Unilateral Vestibular Weakness

Start date: May 10, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

People that have difficulty with balance, such as those with damage to their inner ear, have a higher risk of falling, which may lead to anxiety and reduced quality of life. Some individuals that have lost part of their sense of balance can learn to compensate using information from their vision, their sense of where their limbs are in space, and from other balance organs that are still intact. Our study aims to determine if virtual reality used together with information from footplate sensors can be used to train people with balance problems to compensate for their inner ear deficits.

NCT ID: NCT04773496 Completed - Aging Clinical Trials

Normative Data for Static and Dynamic Posturography (NeuroCom EQUITEST and BALANCE MASTER) in Subjects Older Than 79yrs

EQUIOLD
Start date: March 1, 2014
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Ageing is known to increase the risk of fall and posturographic stabilometry, both static and dynamic, are useful tools to assess postural stability. To our knowledge, no published normative data for a healthy elderly population are available.

NCT ID: NCT03171181 Completed - Inner Ear Disease Clinical Trials

Unilateral Peripheral Vestibular Dysfunction: Reeducation and Spatial Orientation.

Start date: November 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Motor control includes postural control and voluntary movement. For an optimal motor control it is necessary that brain integrates vestibular, visual and somatosensorial inputs properly, in a nonlinear way. Vestibular system, as an afferent organ, encodes head position in relation to gravity and changes in its linear and angular acceleration. As vestibular central system, it plays an essential role in motor control and in orientation and spatial memory as well. When a peripheral vestibular lesion occurs, elaboration, interpretation and processing of inputs are deficient and therefore motor control is altered to a greater or lesser degree. As process progress in time, there is a natural neuroplasticity that facilitates recovery or compensate vestibular function, although sometimes this process is incomplete and requires vestibular reeducation This study aims to assess changes in balance control, orientation and handicap perception in one case group with symptomatic unilateral peripheral vestibular dysfunction, before and after a rehabilitation programme (RV). To compare values obtained at the beginning and at the end of RV to those achieved by control group. Finally, this research aims to analyse evolution of spatial orientation quality in symptomatic and non symptomatic participants.
