Early Phase 1
Withdrawn
Conditions
Vestibular Dizziness
Superior Semicircular Canal Dehiscence
Registration Number
NCT01727544
Lead Sponsor
Mayo Clinic
Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to measure objective, functional outcomes of patients undergoing cartilage cap occlusion surgery for a dehiscent superior semicircular canal.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
objective improvementbaseline to 3 months

The primary outcome measure will be the subsequent (3 month) FGA scores between the control group and the surgery group to assess any objective improvement attributable to surgery

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
ABC Scalebaseline to 3 months

Secondary objective outcome measures will be changes in conductive hearing loss and changes in cervical VEMP thresholds between the two groups at the 3-month interval. Secondary subjective outcome measures will be ABC Scale and VAS scores between the two groups at 3 months.
