Efficacy of Vestibular Rehabilitation Using Computerized Dynamic Posturography With Virtual Reality for Stable Unilateral Vestibular Weakness

Detailed Summary

People that have difficulty with balance, such as those with damage to their inner ear, have a higher risk of falling, which may lead to anxiety and reduced quality of life. Some individuals that have lost part of their sense of balance can learn to compensate using information from their vision, their sense of where their limbs are in space, and from other balance organs that are still intact. Our study aims to determine if virtual reality used together with information from footplate sensors can be used to train people with balance problems to compensate for their inner ear deficits.
