Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Using the data obtained in a study carried out at the Hospital of Alcañiz (Teruel, Spain) between February and July 2019, with a stabilometric platform and with movement sensors, the investigators want to demonstrate that the rehabilitation works in those patients with vertigo or dizziness of cervical origin. For this, the data obtained from that sample, which was of 67 patients, will be analyzed in a pre-post rehabilitation treatment study, objectifying whether the patients improved or not, both in terms of imbalance and cervical pain, if any.

Using the data obtained in a study carried out at the Hospital of Alcañiz (Teruel, Spain) between February and July 2019, with a stabilometric platform and with movement sensors, the investigators want to demonstrate that the rehabilitation works in those patients with vertigo or dizziness of cervical origin. For this, the data obtained from that sample, which was of 67 patients, will be analyzed in a pre-post rehabilitation treatment study, objectifying whether the patients improved or not, both in terms of imbalance and cervical pain, if any. The 67 patients attended the rehabilitation consultation where, after taking the anamnesis, they began to perform balance tests with a stabilometric platform and those patients with associated neck pain, with cervical motion sensors. Treatment with conventional physiotherapy, electrotherapy or exercises at home was prescribed as appropriate to each one. 3 months later, the patients were examined again in consultation, using a new anamnesis, the platform and the sensors. With the data obtained in said field work, carried out in 2019, the present study aims to analyze the usefulness of rehabilitation treatment in vertigo.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Type of rehabilitation treatment

Depending on whether the cervical pain associated with vertigo in the patients associated pain radiating to the arms or not, treatment with conventional physiotherapy or electrotherapy was prescribed. In addition, both groups had a control group that performed exercises at home prescribed by a physician.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Rehabilitation Treatment: Physiotherapy, Electrotherapy or Exercises at home

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

The 67 patients attended the rehabilitation consultation where, after taking the anamnesis, they began to perform balance tests with a stabilometric platform and those patients with associated neck pain, with cervical motion sensors. Treatment with conventional physiotherapy, electrotherapy or exercises at home was prescribed as appropriate to each one. 3 months later, the patients were examined again in consultation, using a new anamnesis, the platform and the sensors.
