Suffering from dizzy spells and migraine headaches? Vestibular Migraine (VM), a newly recognized type of migraine that causes bouts of dizziness. University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and The Mayo Clinic is seeking people with VM to participate in a research study. The purpose of this study is to look at the natural history of VM and learn more about common symptoms. Investigators also want to learn the effects, both positive and negative, of the commonly used migraine drug, rizatriptan, when it is used for spells of dizziness in people with VM. Patients may be eligible to participate if: - Patients are between the ages of 18 & 65 - Patients have a history of vestibular migraine - Patients are able to maintain a vestibular symptom diary The study includes 3 visits with compensation. All participants must complete questionnaires on dizziness, headache symptoms, general health and well-being, mental health, and a questionnaire on patient's satisfaction with study medication.
Dizziness and vertigo account for roughly 4% of chief symptoms in the emergency department (ED). Pharmacological therapy is often solicited for these symptoms, such as vestibular suppressants, anti-emetics and benzodiazepines. However, every medication is accompanied with unavoidable side-effects. To the best of the investigators knowledge, no papers surveyed assess the feasibility of applying acupuncture as an emergent intervention means to the treatment of dizziness and vertigo. The investigators study targeted on filling in this gap by performing a clinical control trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of traditional Chinese medicine - acupuncture - in treating patients with dizziness and vertigo in ED.
A Multicenter, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled, Phase Ⅱa clinical trial to enroll 120 patients with Vertigo Caused By Posterior Circulation Infarction during 7 days, then to evaluate the efficacy of different dose of Levophencynonate Hydrochloric, and provide the effective dosage for phase IIb clinical study, to study the safety of Levophencynonate Hydrochloric.
Therefore, the purpose of this pilot study is to determine the feasibility of conducting a randomized clinical trial (RCT) on physical therapist treatment for dizziness after sports-related concussion. The specific research question for this pilot RCT is: What is the feasibility of conducting a RCT on athletes who have dizziness 10 or greater days after a sports-related concussion to explore the effectiveness of directed vestibular rehabilitation, neuromotor retraining, and/or manual physical therapy (PT) when compared to sham treatment? The findings of this study (for both feasibility and effect size) will be used to inform and direct revisions to the methods for a larger RCT on this population. Primary Aims: Specific Aim 1: Assess the feasibility of the following: recruitment and retention of participants, required resources for project management, and assessment of patient safety. Specific Aim 2: Estimate the size of the effect between skilled physical therapist intervention and a sham treatment for the recovery rate for athletes with a concussion who have dizziness 10 - 14 days post-concussion.
- Vertigo complaint is one of the common cause of patients who applied to emergency services. - Patients who have applied to emergency services with vertigo complaint mostly have nausea as an additionally symptom to this complaint and anti-emetic agents can be used in their treatments very often. - The investigators purpose is to investigate the advantages of Dimenhydrinate and metoclopramide to each other in the treatment of vertigo and the vertigo accompanied by nausea
The VERTIGO study is likely to help determine characteristics of different types of vertigo in patients presenting in the Ear Nose & Throat (ENT) clinics with complaints of dizziness. Moreover, it will also help to develop an understanding about the current management practices of this condition at local level.
This double-blinded study evaluates the frequency of vertigo attacks and the quality of life of patients diagnosed with Ménière's disease after being randomly assigned to take a placebo or lamotrigine.
