New brain wave test could predict vertigo recovery

NCT ID NCT02463695

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested a new method called cortical vestibular evoked potentials (C-VEPs) to measure how the brain processes balance signals from the inner ear. Researchers compared people with normal balance to those with vestibular neuronitis (a cause of vertigo) to see if the test could help diagnose balance disorders and predict recovery. The study was terminated early, but it aimed to improve understanding of how balance injuries affect brain pathways.
