简要总结
The purpose of this study: To investigate the effectiveness of non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation and vestibular rehabilitation applications in patients diagnosed with Unilateral Vestibular Hypofunction (UVH).
详细描述
It was planned to include 40 patients diagnosed with UHV in the study. Patients were randomized into 2 separate groups (20 people in the vestibular rehabilitation group, 20 people in the vagus nerve stimulation group in addition to vestibular rehabilitation).

结局指标
主要结局
Unterberger test
时间窗: 5 minutes
Unterberger test: The patient first takes 10 steps quickly with his eyes open, then With his eyes closed, he takes 50 steps quickly in place. If there is a lesion, apply it to the side of the lesion. correct deviation occurs.
Semitandem test
时间窗: 10 minutes
semitandem stance positions; The conditions (sec) of remaining in balance with eyes open and closed on hard and soft surfaces will be measured.
tandem test
时间窗: 10 minutes
tandem semitandem stance positions; The conditions (sec) of remaining in balance with eyes open and closed on hard and soft surfaces will be measured.
one-leg standing test
时间窗: 10 minutes
one-leg standing test; The conditions (sec) of remaining in balance with eyes open and closed on hard and soft surfaces will be measured.
Dynamic visual acuity test
时间窗: 5 minutes
Dynamic visual acuity test; It measures the ability to see an object during rapid head movements.
Modified-CTSIB
时间窗: 30 minutes
Modified-CTSIB; It is generally used as a semi-quantitative test measurement and clinical practice in which points are scored based on the ability to perform various standing static positions It is a test. It covers different situations where the patient must stand under different conditions: foam surface versus hard floor, tested with eyes open and closed in six different test groups.
VAS Visual Analogue Scale (dizziness severity)
时间窗: 5 minutes
Visual Analogue Scale will be applied to evaluate dizziness severity and patient satisfaction. With this scale, scoring from 0 to 10 is requested. While 0 indicates the lowest dizziness severity and lowest patient satisfaction, 10 indicates the highest dizziness severity and highest patient satisfaction.
次要结局
- Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale(5 minutes)
- Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HAD)(5 minutes)
- Dizziness Handicap Inventory Scale(5 minutes)
