NCT ID: NCT01672658 Completed - Clinical trials for Traumatic Brain Injury

Traditional Balance vs Vibrotactile Feedback Training for Vestibular Rehabilitation

Start date: January 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical research study at RIC is to determine the value and benefit of the SK multimodal balance training system through independent clinical evaluations. The functional benefit of the SK Balance system will be measured by any improvements in balance and functional assessments. This study is primarily funded through Engineering Acoustics as a subcontract for a phase II Small Business Innovation Research by the Department of Defense. 3) Hypotheses & Research Objectives and Purpose: The specific research questions to be addressed are: 1. How does an 8-week SKBS+VRT training intervention compare to an 8-week standard VRT intervention on balance and functional gait measures in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) participants. 2. How do SKBS measurement tools compare to standard clinical assessments of gait and balance in mTBI patients The purpose of this clinical research study is to compare the value and benefit of the SK multimodal balance training system in combination with traditional vestibular rehabilitation vs. traditional vestibular rehabilitation alone through independent clinical evaluations. The functional benefit of the SK Balance system will be measured by any improvements in clinical measures of balance, functional mobility, and gait assessment.
