What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting

By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
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 Results may not be published yet.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
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tests a device called SWAN that guides people through head movements to reduce motion sickness and improve balance. It is for adults with inner ear disorders, motion sickness, or those recovering from vestibular schwannoma surgery. Participants use the device at home for 15-minute sessions while their eye and head movements are tracked.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
StableEyes Training Device with video-oculography (SWAN)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, self-administered way to reduce motion sickness and improve balance for people with inner ear disorders or after vestibular schwannoma surgery.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage trial with only 48 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The device requires active participation and may not work for all types of motion sickness.
