Effect of Vestibular Perceptual Learning on Vestibular Thresholds and Balance

The intervention being studied is a minimal risk perceptual learning protocol delivered in an academic laboratory setting; the goal of the intervention is to improve the perception of passive whole-body tilts, as well as balance, by providing feedback during passive tilts of the body. The protocol lasts a total of 6 days: Day 1 includes a pre-test assessment of perception and balance, as well as 100 repetitions of training, Days 2-5 each include 300 repetitions of training, and Day 6 includes only post-test assessments of perception and balance.

Study Overview

• Status: Not yet recruiting
• Conditions: Healthy Aging
• Intervention / Treatment: Behavioral: Vestibular Perceptual Learning; Behavioral: Placebo Intervention

Detailed Description

Four training paradigms will be evaluated in 4 cohorts of older 10 adults (N=40; Ages 60 to 89). The first training protocol will be a roll tilt training protocol previously shown to reduce roll tilt thresholds. The remaining three training protocols will include the parameters (i.e., plane of tilt, feedback schema, and difficulty level) found most effective following a series of basic science human subject experiments. As such, each cohort will perform perceptual training using a combination of the following training parameters:

1. Tilt Plane: training stimuli will either be in (A) the roll plane, (B) the pitch plane, (C) in the anatomical plane of vertical semi-circular canals (i.e., 45 degrees between the roll and pitch planes).
2. Difficulty Level: As was done in a published study of roll tilt perceptual training, the training stimuli will be adjusted during each training session using an adaptive staircase procedure. Older adults will train using either a (A) 2-Down/1-Up (i.e., the size of the tilt stimulus decreases after 2 consecutive correct responses and increases after each incorrect response), (B) 3-Down/1-Up, or (C) 6-Down/1-Up staircase. The respective staircases target a stimulus that, on average, should yield an accuracy level of 70.7%, 79.4%, and 89.1%, and thus represent a progressive decrease in difficulty level.
3. Feedback Method: During training, the accuracy of perceptual judgement (e.g., recognizing a left vs. right tilt motion) will be provided to the subject using one of three feedback schema: (A) an auditory stimulus indicating when an answer is correct, as well as incorrect, (B) a visual stimulus provided after the subject responds (i.e., chooses left or right) during the return of the chair to an upright position (i.e., tilting back to the start), or (C) a combination of auditory feedback and visual feedback.

Specifically, one cohort of older adults will use the training protocol that, after completion of pilot experiments, is found to most effectively reduce tilt thresholds in young adults, another cohort will use the training protocol that yields the best change in balance in young adults, and the last cohort will use the remaining training protocol judged to best reduce thresholds AND yield the best sway changes. A training protocol may be repeated in more than one older adult cohort (e.g., if best threshold and best balance change are achieved via the same protocol in young adults) however each older adult participant recruited will only be randomly assigned to a single test condition. All other elements of the training not outlined above, (e.g., 6 days for testing/training visits, etc.) will mimic the published protocol.

The targeted dates for each assessment and intervention period are shown, however, to permit greater adherence to the study protocol, tests of retention will be accepted if they occur within 7 to 10 days after the post-test (for the one-week follow-up) or 30 to 40 days after the post-test (for the one-month follow-up).

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm	Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Training Protocol 1 - Intervention First; Participants will complete a roll tilt training protocol previously shown to reduce roll tilt thresholds. The training stimulus parameters are as follows: 0.5 Hz roll tilt motion, stimulus size will be adjusted based upon subject responses using a 2-down, 1-up (2D/1U) staircase, and only auditory feedback will be provided.The training protocol will be completed first, followed by the placebo intervention.	Behavioral: Vestibular Perceptual Learning; The participants will be tilted and asked to indicate their perceived direction of self-motion (e.g., left or right). Feedback will be provided to promote learning (i.e., improved perception of motion). Feedback will only be provided after the subject response, and thus vestibular (i.e., self-motion) perception is required to judge the direction of the tilt stimulus. After each trial, a 3 second period of rest will be given. Each day of training will include three blocks of one-hundred trials each. Testing will take place in the dark (except for aims where a visual cue is provided). Subjects will be seated on a motion platform with a 5-point harness and the head restrained. Noise cancelling earpieces (along with a white noise signal) will be used to reduce external noise. Subjects will always be asked to make a decision (e.g. left versus right) by pressing buttons with their left or right hands. If not certain, subjects are instructed to provide their best guess.; Other Names: Vestibular Perceptual Training; Vestibular Perceptual Adaptation; Behavioral: Placebo Intervention; The placebo (or control) task will consist of oculomotor exercises that the subject will complete at home (i.e., outside of the lab). The oculomotor exercises will include saccadic eye movements performed in the horizontal and vertical planes. All movements will be completed within a limited, comfortable range of motion with the head remaining stationary. As the control intervention will be performed with the head stationary and in a seated position, no change in self-motion perception or balance is expected to result from the control (i.e., placebo) task.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Change in Vestibular Roll Tilt Perceptual Thresholds	Vestibular perceptual thresholds will be measured using forced-choice methodologies; such methods have been used extensively. Passive, whole body tilts will delivered using a Moog motion platform. Subjects will be tilted in one of two directions (e.g., towards the left or right) in complete darkness and asked to report the perceive direction of motion. All subjects will be seated in a chair with a 5-point harness. The head will be restrained by a standard motorcycle helmet. Noise cancelling headphones will be worn, reducing external noise by about 20 decibel (dB); to mask potential auditory directionality cues, auditory "noise" - uncorrelated with motion (amplitude, direction, or type) - will be applied at 60 dB sound pressure level (SPL). Motion stimuli will consist of single cycles of sinusoidal acceleration. using published methods.	Intervention First Group: Days 1, 6, 13, 36, 41; Placebo First Group: Days 1, 6, 11, 18, 41
Change in the Postural Sway During the Modified Romberg Balance Test	Static stance will be measured using a tri-axial force plate; postural sway will be measured in response to balance challenges including: (1) standing either on a foam or firm surface, (2) with the eyes either open or closed, and (3) with the feet together or in tandem. The center of pressure (COP) root-mean-square-distance will serve as the primary outcome measure describing postural sway.	Intervention First Group: Days 1, 6, 13, 36, 41; Placebo First Group: Days 1, 6, 11, 18, 41
Change in Postural Sway during the Sensory Organization Test	The Sensory Organization Test (SOT) is a standard clinical and research assessment used to quantify quiet stance postural sway in the presence of unreliable visual and proprioceptive feedback. The conditions of the test include (1) eyes open firm surface, 2) eyes closed firm surface, 3) sway referenced vision firm surface, 4) eyes open sway referenced platform, 5) eyes closed sway referenced platform, 6) sway referenced visual surround and platform. Sway-referencing describes a technique used to alter the reliability of proprioceptive and/or visual inputs by tilting the support surface or visual surround to follow the displacement of the CoP. Center of pressure data will be collected in each condition using a tri-axial force plate; each condition will be repeated 3 times, for 20 seconds each. The root mean square displacement of the center of pressure (CoP) will be calculated for each trial, using the median of 3 trials as the primary outcome.
