65 and older, any sex, with BPPV. Patients with the condition only — healthy volunteers not accepted.

Sponsor's own description

BPPV is a benign condition of the balance organ, localized in the inner ear, in which calcium crystals loosen up and move freely in the endolymphatic fluid of the inner ear (more specifically in the semi-circular canals). During certain posture changes or head movements, these moving calcium crystals cause dizziness and balance problems. The general objective of the study is to evaluate the impact of BPPV on the balance of older adults in nursing homes. For this purpose, we will compare the balance of residents with BPPV with residents without BPPV. Furthermore, we will identify the impact of treatment on balance problems and fall risk in older adults in nursing homes.
