Filter by:This was a randomized controlled trial study where there the total participants were 22and these participants were randomly selected and then distributed in to two groups all participants were selected according to the inclusion exclusion criteria of the study and then they were randomly distributed in two groups named as group A and group B both of the contain equal number of participants which are randomly distributed in groups each group contain 11 participants .Group A received the vestibular stimulation by swing in different positions supine, prone and with or without support in each position for 10minnts 3 times a week for 10 weeks along with general strengthening exercises of upper and lower limb and group B will receive general strengthening exercises of whole body for same time period. Data will be then analyzed by using SPSS windows version 25
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the short-term effect of a structured, combined postural control and gaze stabilisation protocol (VIS-REHAB protocol) in a group of vestibular-impaired children of different age categories (3-17 years). The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the short-term effect of the VIS-REHAB protocol? - What are the most important factors that may influence the effect of and outcome after application of the VIS-REHAB protocol? The participant will undergo both an active rehabilitation program (VIS-REHAB protocol) and a period during which physical therapy is discontinued (CTRL protocol).: - VIS-REHAB protocol: Postural control (static and dynamic postural stability exercises), gaze stability exercises (oculomotor function and VOR-exercises) & general gross motor training with focus on gaze stability and postural control. Researchers will compare the VIS-REHAB protocol with receiving no therapy (CTRL protocol) to evaluate potential enhancements in postural stability, gaze stability, motor performance and quality of life.
To investigate the efficacy of vestibular rehabilitation treatment on unsteadiness after intratympanic gentamicin in patients with Meniere's disease.
Introduction: Galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) is a well-established technique with a history spanning over a century, primarily used to manipulate the vestibular system. Recent interest has surged in its potential for understanding human vestibular function and aiding in functional recovery. GVS applies electrical currents to the mastoid region, modulating vestibular afferents, and induces specific effects based on the participant's posture and current polarity. While GVS's impact on the central nervous system and its potential to aid in functional recovery have been studied, its immediate effects on vestibular reflexes remain less explored. Methods: In this study, thirty healthy adult participants underwent ocular and cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) tests, as well as the velocity Head Impulse Test (vHIT) before and immediately after one hour of GVS application. Statistical analyses were performed to assess changes in VEMP and vHIT results.
The peripheral vestibular disorder is a heterogeneous disorder that occurs due to unilateral or bilateral involvement of the peripheral vestibular organs in the inner ear, characterized by dizziness, balance disorder, visual blurring with head movements, postural instability, and gait disturbance. In the treatment of vestibular disorders, medical and surgical approaches, as well as vestibular rehabilitation are included. Vestibular rehabilitation should aim at repetitive stimulation of the vestibular sensory organs and improving peripheral sensory inputs by providing strong synaptic plasticity between the hair cells in these organs and the damaged parts of the vestibular system. According to this information, task-oriented training based on the practice of the task in the real environment with plenty of repetition seems to be a suitable method for the requirements of the treatment of vestibular disorders. This study was planned to examine the effects of task-oriented training on balance and gait in patients with peripheral vestibular disorders.
This study aims to investigate the effect of computerized vestibular function assessment and interactive training system, combined with cognitive/motor dual-task for the elderly with dizziness. The investigators will compare the movement abilities among older adults with different cognitive level, and further establish an assessment module that can evaluate participants' dual-task performance in both vestibular and cognitive tasks. Finally, leveraging the advantages of sensor detection technology and computerized feedback, an appropriate dual-task rehabilitation approach for vestibular function and cognition will be developed.
to study the videonystagmography response to a bone conducted vibration on the mastoid by B250 bone transducer in patients affected by vestibular loss, Menieres disease and Superior Semicircular Canal Dehiscence Syndrome vs healthy control subjects
The goal of this virtual clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of two study devices in providing temporary relief to adults aged 18-70 who suffer from symptoms of chronic vertigo. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Which device do participants respond better to (that is, find more relief)? - To what degree do participants find relief? Participants will be: - Enrolled up to 49 days; 14 days in Baseline Phase (no device) and 21 days in Treatment Phase (study device) for Study Arm 1 or 28 days in Treatment Phase (study device) for Study Arm 2 - Randomized and stratified into groups based on diagnosis to be assigned a study device - Asked to use the study device as instructed by the study coordinator - Asked to download a study app to submit daily diaries regarding 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 see which groups respond better to which device.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of Vestibular Rehabilitation Exercises (VRE) and General Fitness Training (GFT) in adults diagnosed with vestibular disorders. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does VRE lead to better improvements in gaze stabilization, balance, and gait than GFT? Does GFT lead to more improvements in overall fitness than VRE? Participants will be randomly assigned to either the VRE or GFT group and will participate in 60-minute exercise sessions twice weekly for 8 weeks. Researchers will compare the improvements in the two groups to see which intervention is more effective.
The primary goal of the study is to examine the feasibility of accompanying vestibular practice supported by a phone app for vestibular rehabilitation. Feasibility will be established using the following parameters: (1) the User Satisfaction Evaluation Questionnaire (USEQ) (2) a custom-made questionnaire to collect feedback from participants, and (3) compliance measurements derived from app usage. The secondary goal of the study is to examine the effect of practice supported by the app on balance and anxiety indices. These will be measured using the following parameters: (1) Instrumented Timed Up and Go Test (iTUG), (2) Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI), (3) State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). The third goal is to assess the correlation between balance function (iTUG) and anxiety (STAI). A randomized crossover pilot study will be conducted with 24 participants. During the study, each group will undergo two and a half weeks of conventional vestibular rehabilitation and two and a half weeks of app-supported vestibular rehabilitation. Measurement sessions will be conducted at three-time points: upon enrollment in the study (T0), after two and a half weeks (T1), and at the end of the study (T2).
