Additional Effects Of Brandt-Daroff Exercises With GANS Maneuver On Dizziness And Quality Of Life In Patients With BPPV

Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is the most common cause of recurrent vertigo, with a lifetime prevalence of about 2.4% and a yearly incidence of roughly 0.6%. It results from displaced otoconia within the semicircular canals and is especially common in older adults. BPPV leads to brief, position-provoked episodes of vertigo, dizziness, and imbalance, and reduced quality of life. Although canalith-repositioning maneuvers are highly effective, recurrence is common, emphasizing the need for supportive and adjunctive management strategies.This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the Additional Effects OF Brandt-Daroff Exercise With GANS Maneuver On dizziness And Quality of Life In Patients with BPPV. Thirty patients with BPPV will be recruited at Fauji Foundation Hospital and screened using the Dizziness Handicap Inverntory Scale(DHI) and Vestibular Activities and Participation measure(VAP). Participants will be randomized into two groups: (1) Reciving GANS Manuever Alone (2) GANS Manuever with Brandt-Daroff Exercises(3 sessions per week/40minutes). Dizziness will be assessed using the Dizziness Handicap Inverntory Scale(DHI) , quality of life using the Activities and Participation Measure(VAP) Scale. Outcome measures will be recorded at baseline and post-intervention. Ethical approval will be obtained from FUMC ERC, and data will be analyzed using SPSS v.22.
