About this trial
In the sponsor's words
Patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) might develop dizziness or vertigo as a first manifestation or during the course of the illness. Many patients with MS experience chronic or intermittent dizziness. Acute symptoms of dizziness or vertigo in MS fall into two categories; acute vestibular syndrome (AVS) and positional vertigo. Vestibular disorder due to MS decreases whole body dynamic postural control and causes many functional limitations as limitations in ambulation, dynamic balance and trunk control and that decreases the quality of life. Vestibular dysfunction has long been recognized as causing some of the most common symptoms in MS, true vertigo is found at presentation in up to 17% of patients, several recent reports have suggested that vestibular symptoms develop early in the disease process. Vestibular Rehabilitation has been shown to be effective in reducing symptoms and improving function for patients with vestibular disorders. The goal of vestibular rehabilitation is to promote the central nervous system compensation through exercise-based strategies.
