Vestibular Rehabilitation for Peripheral Vestibular Hypofunction

"last update: 9 June 2024"  

Research needs

1-Researchers should explore delivery of VPT using technology, telehealth, or self-teaching methods as an alternative for some individuals and identify individual-level factors that impact the use of technology on rehabilitation outcomes and patient satisfaction.

2-There is a paucity of research on the effectiveness of vestibular rehabilitation in children. Randomized controlled studies are needed to determine the effect of GSE on gaze stability, gross motor abilities, and postural control in children with UVH and BVH.

3- Researchers need to investigate whether there is critical dosage or time points for person versus telehealth/remote supervision.

4-Researchers need to investigate added value of high technology methods (VR) to traditional methods of VRT.

5- Researchers should examine the concept of return to work. Areas for study include job requirements that may be difficult for individuals with vestibular hypofunction, job modification or assistive technology to allow return to work, criteria for return to work or disability assignment, and indicators for return to safe driving.
