Balance Problems and Hearing Loss in Factory Workers
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study looks at how hearing problems might affect balance and coordination in factory workers. Researchers want to understand if there's a connection between hearing loss and dizziness or balance issues on the job.

This study tests a training program to help teenagers with severe hearing loss improve their balance and daily activities. It may help if you have only hearing loss and no other health issues.
This study looks at how hearing loss affects balance in children aged 3 to 10. It tests balance and inner ear function to help understand the connection between hearing and balance problems.
This study tests a new device that may help restore balance for people with long-term dizziness from inner ear problems. The implant is placed surgically to stimulate the balance nerve.
This study measures normal (expected) results from hearing and balance tests in healthy people. It may help researchers and clinics better understand what “normal” looks like so future patients’ test results can be interpreted more accurately.
This study follows adults with hearing instability to better understand what causes it, measure it in new ways, and look for potential treatment targets. If you qualify, you may get hearing and balance-related testing (including scans) over a period of time.
This study looks at how balance problems (vestibular function) affect everyday activities in deaf infants. Researchers will compare three groups: deaf infants with balance issues, deaf infants without, and hearing infants without balance issues.
