DIZZINESS

This study compares two treatments—osteopathic manipulative therapy and standard physiotherapy—for people with chronic neck pain, dizziness, and headaches linked to neck problems. About 50 adults aged 18 to 65 will be randomly assigned to one of the two approaches. The goal is to…

This study tests a personalized, noninvasive brain stimulation treatment (TMS) for people aged 18-65 with persistent symptoms after a mild concussion or brain injury, such as headache, dizziness, brain fog, or anxiety. Participants will receive either active or sham TMS over 10 s…

This study compares a standard home exercise program to a digital, game-like app for treating dizziness in adults who have had a mild traumatic brain injury. 68 participants will do balance and eye exercises for 4 weeks. Researchers want to see if the app version helps people fee…

This study looks at whether adding Brandt-Daroff exercises (simple head movements done at home) to the standard GANS maneuver can better reduce dizziness and improve quality of life in people with BPPV, a common inner-ear problem that causes brief spinning sensations. Researchers…

This study tests if entering an MRI machine more slowly can reduce the dizziness and vertigo some people feel. Researchers will have 100 participants enter the scanner at different speeds—20 seconds, 1, 2, or 3 minutes—and report their symptoms. The goal is to find a simple way t…

This study looked at 38 operating room nurses to see if wearing a surgical mask or an N95 mask made a difference in physical symptoms caused by surgical smoke, such as headaches, dizziness, and fatigue. Nurses wore each type of mask for four weeks, and their symptoms were tracked…

This study tests whether hearing aids with built-in sensors and artificial intelligence can assess a person's risk of falling and help them hear better in noisy places. Researchers at Stanford University will enroll 350 adults aged 55 and older who already wear hearing aids. Part…

This study looks at whether a bedside exam done by emergency room doctors can accurately tell if a patient's vertigo, dizziness, or unsteadiness is caused by a stroke or other central nervous system problem. Researchers will study 825 adults in the ER to see how well the exam wor…

This study looks at whether putting a physical therapist directly in the emergency department can improve care for people with dizziness. Researchers will compare this new approach to usual care at two hospitals. The main goal is to see if the idea is practical, not yet to prove …

This study looks at how special moving patterns (like a spinning disk or VR dots) affect balance in people who feel dizzy after a concussion, those with other dizziness, and healthy volunteers. Researchers will measure body sway and symptoms to find better ways to diagnose visual…
