Summary

This trial tests a wearable-sensor system called MINDGAPS that tracks eye and body movements during balance exercises. Researchers want to see if it can improve dizziness and stability in older adults with vestibular hypofunction — a common cause of falls. The study also checks whether the system is safe, easy to use, and practical for home-based rehab.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
a wearable-sensor-based system called MINDGAPS that tracks gaze and postural stability during vestibular exercises
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a more effective, personalized way to improve balance and reduce falls in older adults with dizziness.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early feasibility study with only 36 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The system requires wearing sensors and may not suit everyone.
