Brandt-Daroff exercises with GANS for BPPV dizziness
Part of Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding Brandt-Daroff exercises (simple head movements you can do at home) to a standard treatment called GANS maneuver helps reduce dizziness and improve daily life for people with BPPV.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with BPPV (a common inner ear problem that causes short bursts of dizziness when you move your head).
- You are between 18 and 60 years old.
- You have a positive Dix-Hallpike test, which is a simple head movement test used to confirm BPPV.
- Your dizziness is at least mild (you notice it) and can be up to severe (it affects your daily life).
- You have not had surgery on your inner ear or balance system, and you do not have a pacemaker or certain other medical conditions like epilepsy or recent head injury.

This trial tests a new physical therapy program for people with persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD), a condition where dizziness is triggered by standing or moving. The program aims to reduce dizziness and improve daily function.
This study tests a simple set of head-and-body movements, called Brandt-Daroff exercises, to see if they help older adults with vertigo feel less dizzy and improve their balance. If you are 65 or older and have moderate vertigo, this trial might help you find relief.
This study compares two types of balance training—Wii Fit exercises and standard vestibular rehab—to see which helps people with BPPV (a common cause of vertigo). If you have moderate BPPV, you may join to help improve your balance.
This trial tests a new way to treat a common inner ear condition called BPPV that hasn't improved with standard head maneuvers. It aims to help people whose dizziness keeps coming back.
This study tests whether a simple head movement called the Epley maneuver can help treat dizziness caused by a common inner ear condition (BPPV) in the emergency room. If you have short episodes of vertigo that last less than 2 minutes, you may be able to join.
This trial compares two standard head movement exercises to treat a common cause of dizziness from inner ear crystals. Both maneuvers are designed to move the crystals back to where they belong, and the study looks at which is more effective.
