No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal is to assess the potential benefit of stochastic galvanic vestibular stimulation (sGVS) in improving patient performance with respect to balance, gait, and/or overall vestibular function for individuals with known deficits in vestibular performance as a result of a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).

Conditions

  • Mild Traumatic Brain Injury, Concussion

Interventions

DEVICE

Stochastic Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation (sGVS)

The investigational intervention is a non-invasive, wearable vestibular stimulation system that delivers subsensory electrical stimulation via surface electrodes behind the ears. Stimulation is delivered at one of four levels (0.33mA, 0.67mA, 1.0mA, and 0mA sham) during standard clinical balance and mobility assessments (TUG and BERTEC). Participants are blinded to stimulation level during each trial.
