简要总结
The aim of this research is to assess effects of Oculomotor and VOR exercises on vertigo, dizziness and balance in patients with BPPV. Randomized controlled trial was conducted at Hameed Latif Hospital, Lahore. The sample size 32 participants which were divided into two groups, 16 participants in traditional physical therapy group and 16 in oculomotor and vestibular ocular reflex exercises group. Study duration was of 6 months. Sampling technique applied was non-probability consecutive sampling technique. Only 30-70 years individuals with Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) were included. Tools used in the study are vertigo handicap questionnaire, visual vertigo analogue scale, dizziness handicap inventory, berg balance scale and dynamic gait index. The data was analyzed using SPSS.

结局指标
主要结局
Visual Vertigo Analogue Scale
时间窗: second reading after 3 weeks
Intensity of visual vertigo in nine challenging situations of visual motions that typically provoke dizziness
Dizziness Handicap Inventory
时间窗: second reading after 3 weeks
Self-perceived handicapping effects imposed by dizziness.
Berg Balance Scale
时间窗: First reading at 3 week
Objectively determine a patient's ability (or inability) to safely balance during a series of predetermined tasks
Vertigo Handicap Questionnaire
时间窗: second reading after 3 weeks
It assess effect of vertigo on disability, handicap and benefits following therapeutic intervention both physically and psychologically.
Dynamic Gait Index
时间窗: second reading after 3 weeks
The clinical tool to assess gait, balance and fall risk. It evaluates not only usual steady-state walking, but also walking during more challenging tasks.
