Measure
Caloric Vestibular Stimulation (CVS)
The TNM Device will provide a standardized active thermal waveform that will be used for all patients. The device is non-invasive and does not use electrical stimulation. TNM Device: The device is worn like a music headset and the patient lies on a wedge pillow while the device is active. Each session lasts under 20 minutes.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: after 84 days of device use

Population: Outcome data was not collected on any patient prior to the study termination.

At the end of the 84 day period of device use, the patient's A1c value will be compared with the baseline value to assess any reduction.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: after 84 days of device use

Population: Outcome data was not collected on any patient prior to the study termination.

At the end of treatment (84 day) period, the patient's fasting lipid panel will be taken and compared with the baseline panel to assess any difference in lipid metabolism.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: after 84 days of device use

Population: Outcome data was not collected on any patient prior to the study termination.

At the end of the 84 day period of device use, the patient's reports on quality of life measures will be compared with baseline values to assess any improvement.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: after 84 days of device use

Population: Outcome data was not collected on any patient prior to the study termination.

At the end of the 84 day period of device use, the patient's reports on mood measures will be compared with baseline values to assess any improvement.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: after 84 days of device use

Population: Outcome data was not collected on any patient prior to the study termination.

At the end of the 84 day period of device use, the patient's reports on diabetes related self care will be compared with baseline values to assess any improvement.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: after 84 days of device use

Population: Study was halted before any of the participants could complete any of the other endpoints making it impossible to assess the feasibility of the device's use in this population. Data was not collected.

At the end of the 84 day period of device use, the patient will be asked to assess the device use experience and note any shortcomings, challenges or difficulties.
