Filter by:This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess whether treatment with lamotrigine and bupropion is more effective than placebo to reduce definitive Meniere's vertigo attacks (DMVA) and dizziness in patients with Meniere's disease. Thirty four participants will be randomized to treatment or placebo groups. Each participant will take part in the trial for 34 weeks, or approximately 9 months.
In the International Headache and Vertigo Registration Study, patients aged 4-99 years with headache (primary headache and secondary headache such as migraine and tension type headache), vertigo (vertigo diseases such as vestibular migraine) and chronic pain (fibromyalgia and other diseases) were collected. The biomarkers, imaging features, right-to-left shunt of the heart (lung), genetic characteristics, treatment, and outcome (in relation to other diseases) of headache-related diseases were studied, and long-term follow-up was planned.
120 male and female patients aged between 18-65 years who apply to the outpatient clinic and diagnosed with TMD will be included in the study. Patients will be divided into 3 groups as Muscle Disorders (Group 1), Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (Group 2) and degenerative joint diseas (osteoarthrosis) (Group 3) according to DC/TMD axis I diagnostic criteria. maximum mouth opening, TMJ sound, pain levels, tinnitus, and dizziness are evaluated.
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is characterized by short, recurrent and intense episodes of vertigo. Repositioning maneuvers have been used for its treatment however, evidence indicated recurrence with these maneuvers. However, the effectiveness of this intervention for improving dynamic and static balance in patients with BPPV is unknown. Vestibular rehabilitation through Caw-throne and Cooksey exercises improves dizziness, balance and gives postural stability. This study aims to determine effects of these exercises in improving the residual symptoms of dizziness and balance impairments after CRM. This randomized controlled trial will recruit patients through convenience sampling. Diagnosed patients of BPPV will be confirmed for inclusion through Dix-Hallpike test. Patients presenting with other neurological, orthopedic or metabolic conditions, patients who have had exposure to any balance exercises or other forms of training that can influence results will also be excluded to limit confounding factors A sample of 26 patients will be taken and divided into two groups each with 13 patients. Group A will receive conventional physical therapy while group B will receive Vestibular Rehabilitation exercises with the conventional physical therapy protocol. The conventional physical therapy protocol will include Cervical stretches and Basic Balance Exercises. The session will be around 40 min on each patient with three session per week on alternate days.The study will evaluate patients through Vertigo symptom Scale (to identify vertigo), Dizziness Handicap Inventory (to identify dizziness),Berg Balance Scale (to identify balance and risk of fall). The data will be analyzed using SPPS software.
The purpose of this study is to develop and validate methods to use hearing aids equipped with embedded sensors and artificial intelligence to assist in the assessment of fall risk and in the implementation of interventions aimed at reducing the risk of falling, as well as to improve speech intelligibility in quiet and in background noise, track physical activity, and social engagement. The investigators hope is that the knowledge that is generated through this study will ultimately translate to the clinical setting and will help reduce the likelihood that individuals experience a fall, and improve the quality of hearing in individuals who wear hearing aids.
Comparison of treatment efficacy of an automated robotic maneuvering system (RMS) repositioning chair versus manual positioning maneuvers in Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo.
The aim of this research is to assess effects of Oculomotor and VOR exercises on vertigo, dizziness and balance in patients with BPPV. Randomized controlled trial was conducted at Hameed Latif Hospital, Lahore. The sample size 32 participants which were divided into two groups, 16 participants in traditional physical therapy group and 16 in oculomotor and vestibular ocular reflex exercises group. Study duration was of 6 months. Sampling technique applied was non-probability consecutive sampling technique. Only 30-70 years individuals with Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) were included. Tools used in the study are vertigo handicap questionnaire, visual vertigo analogue scale, dizziness handicap inventory, berg balance scale and dynamic gait index. The data was analyzed using SPSS.
: Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo is a condition related to vestibular system accompanied by dizziness, tinnitus and balance problems leading to increased fall risk and potential disability. Various treatment options are available including pharmacotherapy and vestibular rehabilitation with varied results
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of a combination of aminobutyric acid, glutamic acid, calcium, thiamine, pyridoxine and cyanocobalamin as adjuvant therapy for vertigo comparatively to ginger under a double-blind randomized study design.
This study will be carried out prospectively on patients who applied to the cardiovascular surgery polyclinic and the carotid-vertebral artery doppler ultrasound due to the vascular problem. All patients will fill "Balance Disorder Scan Survey" and "Vertigo-Dizziness Imbalance Questionnaire-SS". Patients who score 1 and more are directed to the ear nose throat polyclinic and detailed differential diagnosis. Those who score 0 will be in control group.
