Objective Examination and Rehabilitation Treatment of Patients With BPPV

January 11, 2021 updated by: Tollár József, Somogy Megyei Kaposi Mór Teaching Hospital

Dizziness (BPPV) causes severe deterioration in quality of life, incoordination, and instability.

In the study, we selected a minimum of 100 patients with BPPV who were examined after specialist care. After the acute phase, a physical survey is performed where movement and coordination are examined.

After the results, the patients undergo a rehabilitation training. The workout is submaximal and high intensity that is done for 3 weeks.

Hypothesis: As a result of training, it is possible that the remaining feeling of dizziness and insecurity, impaired coordination will decrease or disappear.

  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: BPPV intervention
After examination of the patients, the patients undergo neurorehabilitation. We use virtual reality therapy. Patients perform a submaximal load that is monitored by a polar clock. We develop endurance, coordination, sensory integration, visual and acoustic input, vestibular training, proprioception training.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
EQ5D-5L
Time Frame: 5 weeks
Quality of life testing is taken with a test. The therapist scores the answers to the questions asked on a scale. The end result determines the quality of life.
5 weeks
Beam Walking test
Time Frame: 5 weeks
The patient walks on slats of varying width. During the examination, the therapist says the tasks (Eg: counting backwards). The study detects the determination of dynamic equilibrium.
5 weeks
Posturography
Time Frame: 5 weeks
Noninvasive intervention where static equilibrium is examined. The program determines the quality and frequency of the displacements.
5 weeks
