Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early

Summary

Researchers are studying whether a quick head-turning test, called video head impulse testing, can detect subtle differences in inner ear balance function in people with vestibular migraine. The study compares 30 people with the condition to 30 healthy volunteers. Each participant undergoes the test, which measures how well the six balance canals in each ear respond to head movements. The goal is to see if this test can help identify vestibular migraine and distinguish it from other balance disorders.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If the test reveals distinct patterns of inner ear dysfunction in vestibular migraine, it could improve diagnosis and help distinguish it from other balance disorders.
What could go wrong
This is a small observational study, so any differences found may not apply to all people with vestibular migraine. The test may also show no clear abnormalities.
