Brain implant for dizziness? new device aims to steady seniors
NCT ID NCT05676944
Summary
This study is testing a surgically implanted device, similar to a cochlear implant but for balance, in older adults (ages 65-90) who have severe, chronic dizziness and unsteadiness from inner ear damage. The implant sends electrical signals to the balance nerve to try to improve stability, walking, and vision. Researchers will see if it's safe, if people can use it daily, and if it helps with balance and quality of life.
