Brain stimulation with virtual reality for ongoing post-concussion dizziness
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests a new treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate the brain while you wear a special headset showing virtual reality scenes. It aims to help people who feel dizzy for a long time after a concussion.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You have had a mild traumatic brain injury (concussion) confirmed by a doctor.
- You have had dizziness that has lasted more than 3 months after your head injury.
- You can speak and understand English, or you will bring an interpreter to all study visits.
- You do not have any of the following: a pacemaker, metal or magnetic implants (except titanium), a history of seizures or epilepsy, uncontrolled psychiatric conditions, or you are not pregnant.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests if a portable electric stimulation device can help improve balance and reduce dizziness in people recovering from a concussion. If you have had ongoing imbalance for at least 4-6 weeks, this study may help you feel steadier.
This study tests whether a wearable device can help people with balance and vision problems after a mild concussion. You will use the device to guide your own exercises and help improve your recovery.
This study tests whether a non-invasive magnetic pulse treatment (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) can help people with long-lasting headaches following a mild concussion. If you are 18 to 55 years old and have had daily headaches for at least 3 months after your head injury, this study may help find a new way to relieve your pain.
This trial tests whether personalized brain stimulation can help people who have ongoing symptoms more than 20 on a standard concussion scale, such as headaches, dizziness, or trouble concentrating, after a mild head injury in the past year.
This study tests whether a type of brain stimulation called TMS can help people with ongoing symptoms after a mild concussion. If you have had concussion symptoms for at least a month but less than a year, you may be able to join.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can help improve thinking and memory problems that some people have after a mild concussion. tDCS uses a small electrical current from scalp electrodes to gently activate parts of the brain.
