An interventional study of INTERVENTION GROUP : TRAINING WITH WIIFIT and VESTIBULAR REHABILITATION TRAINING in Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo, Balance and Vertigo, sponsored by Foundation University Islamabad. Recruiting at 1 site in Pakistan. Open to participants aged 30 Years to 60 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2024-12-18.
Sponsored by Foundation University Islamabad · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
THIS STUDY IS A RANDOMIZED CONTROL TRIAL AND THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY IS TO DETERMINE THE EFFECT OF WIIFIT TRAINING IN COMPARISON TO VESTIBULAR REHAB TRAINING ON BALANCE IN PATIENTS WITH BENIGN PAROXYSMAL POSITIONAL VERTIGO
Effects of wiifit training will be assessed for balance and vertigo which includes the parameters of balance training.
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo patients aged 30-60 years The participants will be assessed through Vestibular Rehabilitation questionnaire (VRBQ), Dizziness handicap inventory (DHI), Functional reach test, Clinical test for sensory integration in balance and vertigo symptom scale.
Informed consent will be taken after which the participants will be recruited into two groups, where one group will receive wiifit training and other group will receive vestibular rehabilitation training.
Base-line and post-treatment measurement will be taken for analysis.
75 studies on the registry are indexed under Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo; 15 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 38 is below the median of 78 across 62 interventional studies indexed under Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo.

Exclusion Criteria:
The participants will receive intervention through Wii fit training which includes games tight rope tension, ski slalom, penguin slide, table tilt, and heading for 6 total 6 weeks. 3 days per week session will be given for 30 minutes including 5-minutes warmup and cool down and 5 minutes of break in between to avoid fatigue.
Procedure: INTERVENTION GROUP : TRAINING WITH WIIFIT
The participants will receive vestibular rehabilitation training. The rehabilitation programme will include weight shifting, neck rotations, sit to stand exercises on padded mat, and head movements with eyes closed. The intervention will be given for 3 minutes, 3 days a week for total 6 weeks of time period.
Procedure: VESTIBULAR REHABILITATION TRAINING
RCT (RANDOMIZED CONTROL TRIAL) GROUP 1 : Wii FIT TRAINING TIGHT ROPE TENSION, SKI SLALOM, PENGUIN SLIDE, TABLE TILT GROUP 2 : VESTIBULAR REHABILITATION TRAINING WEIGHT SHIFTING, NECK ROTATIONS, SIT TO STAND EXERCISES ON PADDED MAT AND HEAD MOVEMENTS WITH EYES CLOSED.
WEIGHT SHIFTING, NECK ROTATIONS, SIT TO STAND EXERCISES ON PADDED MAT AND HEAD MOVEMENTS WITH EYES CLOSED.
Static Balance
The Vestibular Rehabilitation Benefit Questionnaire (VRBQ) is a validated tool used to measure balance 0 means no problem, 100 means severe problem
Time frame: 6 weeks
Vertigo
DHI scale is used to assess vertigo.The questionnaire consists of 25 items with 3 responses YES= 4 points SOMETIMES = 2 points and NO = 0 points. The total score ranges from 0 to 100, higher score indicating self perceived handicap due to dizziness.
Time frame: 6 weeks
Static Balance
CTSIB of Biodex is used to assess static balance and has 4 components. a) Firm surface with eyes open; (Mean value 0.44)test the integration of visual,somatosensory and vestibular inputs. All sensory systems are available for balance. b) Firm surface with eyes closed; (mean value 0.80)evaluate the reliance on somatosensory input for balance and visual input is eliminated.c) Foam surface with eyes open; (Mean value; 0.79) Test the ability to use visual and vestibular inputs for balance when somatosensory inputs is unreliable,unstable surface. d) Foam surface with eyes closed; (mean value 2.41) primarily challenges the vestibular system by eliminating visual input and providing unreliable somatosensory feedback. The total mean of these 4 components is 1.11.
Time frame: 6 weeks
Dynamic balance
Functional Reach test will be used to assess dynamic balance * Scoring: * Distance in centimeters or inches is recorded. * Normal values : * \<15 cm indicates a high fall risk in older adults
Time frame: 6 weeks
