Filter by: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.
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 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.
Vertigo, dizziness, and imbalance are commonly reported by patients and technologists when near high-field strength magnets (>4 Tesla, T) used for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (1-5) Prior research from the investigators has established that the mechanism is likely a Lorentz force occurring in the inner ear, as a result of interactions with normal electrical currents in the inner ear and the strong static magnetic field of the MRI machine. The investigators have recently developed preliminary data to suggest that slower rates of entry into the magnetic field can greatly attenuate the sensations of vertigo. The explanation for this is that the rates of vestibular adaptation exceed that of the stimulus, allowed a reduction or elimination of the symptoms of vertigo. The aim of this study is to recruit individuals who are already getting an MRI scan as part of other research studies to randomize the rate of entry into and exit from the static magnetic field (i.e., before and after imaging is performed). The usual rate of entry is 20 seconds. This will be increased to one, two or three minutes. The investigators will record subjective sensations of dizziness and vertigo associated with the entry into the MRI.
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.
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common peripheral vestibular disorder, and currently, manual repositioning techniques are often used for treatment. However, up to 30%-50% of patients may experience residual symptoms such as non-rotational dizziness, heaviness, instability, and emotional disturbances even after successful repositioning, which significantly impacts their daily functioning and quality of life. Electroacupuncture therapy has been proven to be an effective treatment for dizziness and has been applied to various vestibular disorder patients. However, the efficacy of electroacupuncture on the residual effects of successfully repositioned BPPV patients remains unclear. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of three regimens: electroacupuncture, betahistine in patients with residual symptoms after successful manual repositioning.
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 observational study is to compare the cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in recurrent/persistant BPPV and nonrecurrent BPPV. Recurrent/persistant BPPV is considered as the patients who require more than one repositioning manuever for the resolution of symptoms and the recurrent cases in the first three months after the diagnosis. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is there any difference between the cVEMP findings of diseased ears of recurrent and nonrecurrent BPPV cases? - Is there any difference between the cVEMP findings of diseased ears and healthy ears of BPPV patients - Is there any difference between the cVEMP findings of healthy ears of recurrent and nonrecurrent BPPV cases and healthy controls? Patients with VNG confirmed BPPV will be recruited and CVEMP test will be performed before the therapeutic manuevers. Control visits will be scheduled on the 7th day after the therateutic menuevers are performed. Patients will be followed-up for 4 weeks after the resolution of symptoms. Researchers will compare recurrent (Group 1), nonrecurrent (group 2) BPPV patients and healthy controls (Group 3) to see if there is any difference between the cVEMP findings of two groups.
A Validation study in which the standard separate cVEMP and oVEMP will be compared with a new protocol in which the cVEMP and oVEMP can be recorded simultaneously in response to a mastoid vibration by bone transducer B250
