简要总结
The goal of this virtual clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of two study devices in providing temporary relief to adults aged 18-70 who suffer from symptoms of chronic vestibular vertigo.
The main question[s] it aims to answer are:
- Within an episode, is there a significant difference between the randomized study devices at the individual timepoints during the vertigo episode?
- Within an episode, is there evidence of quantitative treatment at each individual timepoint during the vertigo episode?
Participants will be:
- Enrolled up to 49 days; 14 days in Baseline Phase (no device) and 21 days in Treatment Phase (study device) for Study Arm 1 or 28 days in Treatment Phase (study device) for Study Arm 2
- Randomized and stratified into groups based on diagnosis to be assigned a study device
- Asked to use the study device as instructed by the study coordinator
- Asked to download a study app to submit daily diaries regarding their symptoms and use of device, and to participate in tele-health visits with study coordinators
- Asked to provide their vertigo diagnosis from their physician
- Compensated for their participation
Researchers will compare the randomized groups to see which groups respond better to which device.
详细描述
This study is decentralized clinical trial. This study uses technology and and virtual meetings to communicate with study participants and collect study data. This study seeks to enroll until 36 participants in the Moderate or Worse (MoW) arm have completed the study, and until 72 participants have completed the Quality of Life (QoL) arm.
All study participants that meet all of the inclusion, none of the exclusion criteria, and sign informed consent will be enrolled in the study. Participants will complete a one day enrollment meeting and an approximately 14 day Baseline Phase.
After the Baseline Phase, participants will be placed in one of two groups Moderate or Worse (MoW) group or Quality of Life (QoL) group based on the data collected about their vertigo during the Baseline Phase.
Participants will then be randomized within their assigned group (MoW or QoL) at a 2:1 ratio to an active arm or sham arm to begin the Treatment Phase of the study. Participants will be sent a study device to use when they have a vertigo episode.
Participants that enroll in the study are expected to participate up to 49 days with virtual meetings at the approximate intervals:

入选标准
- •To be eligible to participate in this study, an individual must meet all the following criteria:
- •Diagnosed as having vestibular vertigo that is caused by one or more of:
- •Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV)
- •Migraine associated vertigo (MAV, aka vertiginous migraines)
- •Meniere's disease (aka idiopathic endolymphatic hydrops)
- •Uncompensated unilateral vestibulopathy (such as arising from vestibular neuritis and labyrinthitis)
- •Vertigo that has been present for at least 90 days
- •Score greater than 35, and less than 91, on the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (corresponding to moderate to severe vertigo)
- •Smartphone, computer or tablet and access to internet for online enrollment, check-in and wrap-up meetings

排除标准
- •Surgery to the base of the skull within the last 6 months or plans for surgery to the skull during enrollment period
- •Any skull or neck implants such as but not limited to a cochlear implant, vascular stents, bone conduction implant, or deep brain stimulation device

- •Superior canal dehiscence (aka third window) or otic capsule dehiscence
- •Hyperacusis (aka hypersensitivity to loud sounds)
- •Currently undergoing vestibular rehabilitation therapy or planning to start vestibular rehabilitation therapy during the study. (People who have completed vestibular rehabilitation therapy, but in whom vestibular vertigo persists, will be permitted to enroll)
