Study arms

  • Experimental
    Cawthorne and Cooksey exercises group

    Intervention: Participants allocated in both control and experimental groups were receiving treatment for their specific vestibular disorders. Patients assigned to the experimental group also performed the Cawthorne and Cooksey exercises for vestibular rehabilitation during a six week of treatment period.

    Other: Experimental: Cawthorne and Cooksey exercises group

  • No intervention
    control group

    intervention: The control group will not perform the active exercise that will be applied to intervention group.

Interventions

  • OtherExperimental: Cawthorne and Cooksey exercises group

    Experimental: intervention group. Patients assigned to the experimental group will perform the Cawthorne and Cooksey exercises for vestibular rehabilitation in addition to their habitual treatment.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Activities-specific Balance Confidence scale (ABC)

    Activities-specific Balance Confidence scale (ABC), to quantify the level of confidence in performing a specific task without losing balance or becoming unsteady. This scale is applied to assess the change due to intervention between the baseline and 6 weeks of treatment. So the data will be collected at baseline and after 6 weeks of treatment.

    Time frame: Baseline and after 6 weeks of intervention

Secondary outcomes

  1. UCLA Dizziness Questionnaire (UCLA-DQ)

    UCLA Dizziness Questionnaire (UCLA-DQ), used to measure the severity and frequency of dizziness and its impact on quality of life. This questionnaire is applied to assess the change due to intervention between the baseline and 6 weeks of treatment. So the data will be collected at baseline and after 6 weeks of treatment.

    Time frame: Baseline and after 6 weeks of intervention

  2. Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI),

    Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI), to assess the level of disability and handicap.This questionnaire is applied to assess the change due to intervention between the baseline and 6 weeks of treatment. So the data will be collected at baseline and after 6 weeks of treatment.

    Time frame: Baseline and after 6 weeks of intervention

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Apr 21, 2016, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
