View clinical trials related to Meniere Disease.
Filter by:Evaluation of the diagnostic and prognostic efficacy of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging in patients with acute sensorineural hearing loss or in patients suffering from probable or definite MD. The neuroradiological and audiological evaluation are held on in the same day in order to better clarify the radiological and clinical correlates.
To investigate the efficacy of vestibular rehabilitation treatment on unsteadiness after intratympanic gentamicin in patients with Meniere's disease.
This study is a Double-blind, Randomized, Sham-controlled, Investigator-initiated trial. To explore the effectiveness of non-invasive inner ear electrical stimulation of the mastoid behind the ear in controlling auditory symptoms and dizziness in patients with Meniere's disease.
The CAVA trial is a diagnostic accuracy multicentre device trial which aims to quantify the extent to which the CAVA system can differentiate three common inner-ear causes of dizziness: Ménière's disease, vestibular migraine and Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV). The CAVA device is composed of two components: a set of bespoke single-use sensor arrays that adhere to the left and right side of the participant's face; and a small reusable module fitting over the ear that contains a battery, microcomputer data storage facility and connection ports for the arrays. The CAVA device will be worn by all participants for 30 days with the aim of capturing eye movement data during a dizzy attack. The first objective is to develop an algorithm that can discriminate between the 3 listed dizziness conditions. The second is to quantify the financial and patient benefits of deployment in the NHS. The final objective is to expedite a plan to deploy the system in the NHS.
The goal of this virtual clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of two study devices in providing temporary relief to adults aged 18-70 who suffer from symptoms of chronic vertigo. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Which device do participants respond better to (that is, find more relief)? - To what degree do participants find relief? Participants will be: - Enrolled up to 49 days; 14 days in Baseline Phase (no device) and 21 days in Treatment Phase (study device) for Study Arm 1 or 28 days in Treatment Phase (study device) for Study Arm 2 - Randomized and stratified into groups based on diagnosis to be assigned a study device - Asked to use the study device as instructed by the study coordinator - Asked to download a study app to submit daily diaries regarding their symptoms and use of device, and to participate in tele-health visits with study coordinators - Asked to provide their vertigo diagnosis from their physician - Compensated for their participation Researchers will compare the randomized groups to see which groups respond better to which device.
The goal of this pharmakokinetic trial is to demonstrate that Betahistine serum concentration is higher after combination treatment with Betahistine and Selegiline compared to Betahistine alone. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is the plasma concentration of betahistine higher due to combination treatment with selegiline compared to betahistine monotherapy? How is the safety of the combination treatment with betahistine and selegiline, the pharmacokinetics of betahistine in different dosages in blood, and the inter-individual differences in the metabolism? Subjects satisfying all selection criteria will receive three different dosages of Betahistine alone orally in ascending order (24 mg, 48 mg, 96 mg) in the first period. In the second period, subjects received Betahistine treatment as described for first period but after pre- and continuous treatment with 5 mg/ml Selegiline orally. Plasma concentration (namely the AUC0-240min) of betahistine will be measured before and 10, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240 minutes after treatment with blood examinations. Safety parameters include assessment of adverse events, ECG, vital signs, laboratory measurements including kidney and liver function, full blood count and pregnancy and drug screening test.
Ménière's disease is an inner ear disorder in which patients suffer from attacks of vertigo, tinnitus and hearing loss. To date, it is unclear what the best treatment for this condition is. Giving injections in the inner ear with the adrenal cortical hormone methylprednisolone is a treatment that is already widely used, but still there is insufficient evidence in the effectiveness of this treatment. This multicenter trial compares a patient group which receives injections of methylprednisolone to a patient group which receives placebo injections. Subsequently, dizziness, tinnitus, hearing loss and quality of life will be assed and compared for the above mentioned groups, over a period of one year.
The aim of our study is to determine the severity of the disease in people with Meniere's Disease; physical conditions such as balance, posture, pain, physical activity level, neck joint range of motion, proprioception; to examine psychosocial conditions such as depression, anxiety, sleep quality, fatigue, and quality of life and to make a comprehensive evaluation by comparing it with healthy volunteers.
Meniere's disease (MD) is a chronic disease with a variety of fluctuating signs and symptoms, which include vertigo, hearing loss, tinnitus (ringing noise in the ear), aural pressure (feeling of ear fullness), and disequilibrium (lack of stability). Vertigo represents one of the most common and distressing problems in MD patients, and it causes various somatic and psychological disorders that interfere with the patient's quality of life. Despite the large economic and emotional impact of symptoms in MD patients, there is no FDA-approved medication to treat this debilitating condition. As such, our objective in this study is to evaluate the therapeutic potential of novel medications in treating MD that have previously shown astonishing promise in our clinical practice.
Patients with unilateral Meniere Disease often a distortion that causes difficulties to provide hearing aids to these patients. Those patients have two main problems: disorders in noise comprehension due to interaural threshold difference and increase in the distortion during dizziness crisis. Due to these problems, some people cannot be fitting with hearing aids because the compression needed is too high or the discomfort in noise is not bearable for patients. Our aim is to evaluate and to propose a way to adjust hearing aids to restore binaural hearing with comfort.
