An implanted device is showing promise in patients with bilateral vestibular hypofunction (BVH), a debilitating condition that significantly impairs balance. Early research suggests the modified ...
Understanding balance and gait deficits in vestibulopathy may help improve clinical care and our knowledge of the vestibular contributions to balance. Here, we examined walking speed effects on gait ...
Motor development in infants is dependent upon the function of the inner ear balance organ (vestibular organ). Vestibular failure causes motor delays in early infancy and suboptimal motor skills later ...
A new doctoral thesis from Karolinska Institutet shows that the balance system can be assessed during the first months of life. Using new, child-friendly methods, health care services can detect ...
Getting around without the need to concentrate on every step is something most of us can take for granted because our inner ears drive reflexes that make maintaining balance automatic. However, for ...
In a recent study published in Frontiers in Medicine, a group of researchers evaluated the impact of a gaming app on exercise performance accuracy and patient engagement in vestibular rehabilitation ...
