Active clinical trials for "Dizziness"

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.

The aim of this study is to translate and introduce a cross-cultural adaptation of The Visual Vertigo Analogue Scale (VVAS). E. Dannenbaum et al developed the VVAS in order to diagnose visual vertigo (VV). VV is dizziness caused by visual stimuli such as scrolling through a computer screen or walking through crowds of people or supermarket aisles.

Study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Buspirone, sustained-release tablets, 15 mg in patients with autonomic dysfunction syndrome accompanied by vertigo

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a vestibular disorder that manifests itself as a result of dizziness caused by the otoconia in the inner ear coming out of their places and circulating freely in the semicircular canals or by attaching to the cupula and sensitizing the cupula to head movements against gravity. The aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of pharmacological treatment initiated by the physician and vestibular rehabilitation initiated by physiotherapist in patients with acute benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Thirty patients, aged 18-50 years, who applied to the Bağcılar Safa Hospital, were included in the study. The patients were divided into two groups, 15 pharmacological control group and 15 vestibular rehabilitation group. 8 patients in the pharmacological control group were given the drug containing betahistine by the physician, and 7 patients received the drug containing additional dimenhydrinate to the betahistine. In the rehabilitation group, exercises including head and eye movements and maneuvering were performed according to the direction of the canal after the exercise, and the patients were given a home exercise program. Treatment continued for 4 weeks. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), dynamic visual acuity test, romberg, semitandem, tandem posture tests with a stopwatch, standing test on one leg with eyes open and closed, and unterberger tests were applied to patients before and after treatment.

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a common inner ear disorder characterized by brief episodes of vertigo caused by changes in head position. The condition can cause significant func-tional impairment and reduced quality of life. BPPV is especially common among diabetic patients. The Epley-Canalith Repositioning Procedure (CRP) and Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy (VRT) are two commonly used interventions for the treatment of BPPV. The objective of this paper is to determine the effective therapy among Epley-Canalith Repositioning Procedure and Vestibular Rehabilitation for improving balance and posture control in Diabetic patients with Benign Parox-ysmal Positional Vertigo. Thirty subjects with Diabetes Mellitus (Type 2) suffering from Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) were recruited for the study and randomly assigned to groups A and B, underwent Canalith Repositioning Procedure and Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy respectively. The outcome measures of the study were Vertigo Symptom Scale- Short Form (VSS-sf) score and Berg Balance Scale Form (BBS) score assessed at pre -treatment (pre) and 4 weeks post treatment (post).

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.

Evaluation of the non inferiority of Meclin (meclizine) versus Dramin (Dimenhydrinate) to treat the symptoms of acute vertigo from peripheral origin after up to 4 weeks of treatment; Evaluation of impact on quality of life in vertigo; Compare the intensity of daytime sleepiness in the two treatment groups; Compare the efficacy of drugs in relieving each of the 10 symptoms that make up the VS; Compare the duration of treatment in both treatment groups; Compare Adehence; Compare the level of satisfaction from each group from the investigators and the subjects; Adverse events;

Outpatients that suffer from different anxiety disorders may have physical ailments that negatively affect daily life functioning and quality of life. LOF is a physical therapy approach focusing on the link between bodily and mental balance and through defined, but simple movements, patients are expected to learn how to cope and reduce health complaints. This study aims to investigate the short- and longterm effect of LOF compared to other standardized psychiatric treatments given in the clinic on levels of anxiety and depression, health related function and quality of life.

The purpose of this study was to compare the treatment effectiveness of three different methods for posterior semicircular canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. The included methods are Modified Epley maneuver, Semont maneuver and Sham maneuver.

Researchers are gathering information on the safety and effectiveness of a new device called the BalanceBelt.
