Filter by:Rehabilitation Of Balance Function In Patients With Persistent Postural Perceptual Dizziness: A longitudinal Study
This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) and vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT) in enhancing balance in individuals with Persistent Postural-Perceptual Dizziness (PPPD). The experimental group received VR combined with VRT and optokinetic stimulation, while the control group received VRT and optokinetic stimulation. The study involved 42 individuals diagnosed with PPPD and administered ten intervention sessions over six weeks. The study also examined the impact of VR on various aspects of PPPD, including dizziness, visual vertigo, mental well-being, sleep quality, fall risk, and overall quality of life.
This study examines the use of an AI-powered virtual assistant for quickly identifying and handling neurological emergencies, particularly in places with limited medical resources. The research aimed to check if this AI tool is safe and accurate enough to move on to more advanced testing stages. In a first-of-its-kind trial, the virtual assistant was tested with patients having urgent neurological issues. Neurologists first reviewed the AI's recommendations using clinical records and then assessed its performance directly with patients. The findings were as follows: neurologists agreed with the AI's decisions nearly all the time, and the AI outperformed earlier versions of Chat GPT in every tested aspect. Patients and doctors found the AI to be highly effective, rating it as excellent or very good in most cases. This suggests the AI could significantly enhance how quickly and accurately neurological emergencies are dealt with, although further trials are needed before it can be widely used.
The purpose of this study: To investigate the effectiveness of non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation and vestibular rehabilitation applications in patients diagnosed with Unilateral Vestibular Hypofunction (UVH).
Study of efficacy and safety of Vespireit, prolonged-release tablets, 15 mg (Valenta Pharm JSC, Russia) in comparison with Arlevert, tablets, 40 mg + 20 mg (Menarini International Operations Luxembourg S.A., Luxembourg) in patients with autonomic dysfunction syndrome accompanied by functional vertigo.
Acute vertigo accounts for around 4% of emergency room visits. Triggered episodic vestibular syndrome is the most commonly encountered symptomatic context. BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo) is the main cause, representing 40-50% of the vertigo cases assessed in emergency departments. It results from the migration of calcium carbonate particles (otoliths), from the sticky membrane of the utricle and saccule of the inner ear, to one of the 3 semicircular canals (SCC), posterior, horizontal or lateral, and anterior. It occurs idiopathically with head movement, through degeneration, or following head trauma. The otolith impulse causes the endolymph to move, temporarily and aberrantly displacing the cup of the affected canal, resulting in the transmission of erroneous information to the vestibular nuclei. This leads to the sudden onset of vertigo and eye deviation, resulting in transient nystagmus. The location of the displaced otoliths determines the variant of BPPV: BPPV of the posterior semicircular canal is the most common (around 65% of BPPVs), followed by BPPV of the horizontal canal, while BPPV of the anterior canal is rare, as it resolves spontaneously and rapidly. Although a benign condition, BPPV leads 9 times out of 10 to a medical consultation, interruption of daily activities, or sick leave. Untreated, it will usually recur, and can impact on patients' quality of life.
This is prospective, randomised double-blind study that will be conducted in the emergency department of 3 university hospitals (FB Monastir, Sahloul Sousse, and FH Sousse) to compare the efficacy of two doses of diazepam (Valium®) and placebo for the relief of acute periphery vertigo in the ED
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.
The goal of this virtual clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of two study devices in providing temporary relief to adults aged 18-75 who suffer from symptoms of chronic Vestibular Migraines (VM), also known as Migraine Associated Vertigo. Participants will be: - Enrolled up to 50 days; enrollment, 14 days in Baseline Phase (no device), 7 days in Transition Phase, 28 days in Treatment Phase (study device) - Randomized and stratified into groups based on the referring clinic to be assigned one study device - Asked to use the study device as instructed by the study coordinator - Asked to submit daily diaries reporting 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 determine which group responds better to which device.
The main objective is to analyze the abnormality of physical condition, mental health and blood examination of the patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Besides, the investigators aim to establish a database of BPPV based on multimodal magnetic resonance imaging data in the brain to identify high-risk patients with residual dizziness (RD) and systematically establish the comprehensive assessment system for the precise diagnosis, treatment and recovery of RD, optimize the tactics of BPPV management in China.
