Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo

This study tests whether two mechanical rotation chairs—the TRV and the newer Rotundum—are equally accurate at diagnosing benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), a common cause of brief dizzy spells triggered by head movements. About 200 adults with typical BPPV symptoms wil…

This early study will test whether weak electrical currents applied to the head can help diagnose balance disorders like vestibular schwannoma and vestibular neuritis. Researchers will measure how 30 people with these conditions sway or move in response to the stimulation. The go…

This pilot trial tests whether a home-based exercise program, paired with a self-guided education booklet, can help adults aged 60 and older who have benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) with or without vestibular hypofunction. Participants are randomly assigned to either …

This study tests whether virtual reality-assisted vestibular rehabilitation can reduce dizziness and improve balance and walking more than conventional vestibular rehabilitation in people with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Participants, aged 18 to 40 with residual …

This study tests whether adding balance training, education, and vestibular rehab to the standard Epley maneuver helps people with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) more than the maneuver alone. Forty-six adults with BPPV will receive either the combined approach or sta…

This study tests two different head-and-body rotation procedures done in a mechanical chair to treat a common inner-ear condition called BPPV, which causes brief but intense spinning sensations. 128 adults with confirmed BPPV will be randomly assigned to either the standard Epley…

This observational study will follow 6,000 adults with dizziness or vertigo who are receiving routine care at hospitals across China. Researchers aim to map the range of underlying causes, track how symptoms and diagnoses change over a year, and see how well standard treatments w…
