Balance measurement study for older adults with dizziness
This study tests a wearable sensor to measure how your body controls balance during walking and simple movements. It may help doctors better understand balance problems in older adults with dizziness or vestibular conditions, potentially improving future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 65 years of age or older
- You have a vestibular condition (inner-ear balance disorder) such as vestibular neuritis, Meniere's disease, migraine-related dizziness, or persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD)
- You are able to walk on your own, with or without a walking aid
- You do not have significant visual impairment or certain other medical conditions
- You are pregnant or have a neurological disorder like Parkinson's or a stroke

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 how dizziness and balance problems affect the way people walk and move. Researchers compare people with chronic vestibular disease (long-term inner ear or balance nerve problems) to healthy volunteers to understand these differences better.
This trial tests whether a structured “vestibular perceptual learning” program can improve balance and your body’s balance signals. It may help people who have balance or dizziness challenges by measuring changes after training.
This study tests whether adding balance exercises (vestibular rehab) with dual-task training (like walking while talking) helps people with long-term dizziness feel steadier and fall less.
This study looks at balance problems in people with Parkinson's disease. It uses simple tests to understand what causes trouble with standing and walking, which may help find better treatments.
This study tests balance and inner-ear function in children who have delays in gross motor skills or dizziness/balance problems. It aims to understand these issues better and may help guide future care.
