The Effect of Computerized Vestibular Function Assessment and Training System Combined With Cognitive/Motor Dual-task
Sponsor: Taipei Medical University
Summary
This study aims to investigate the effect of computerized vestibular function assessment and interactive training system, combined with cognitive/motor dual-task for the elderly with dizziness. The investigators will compare the movement abilities among older adults with different cognitive level, and further establish an assessment module that can evaluate participants' dual-task performance in both vestibular and cognitive tasks. Finally, leveraging the advantages of sensor detection technology and computerized feedback, an appropriate dual-task rehabilitation approach for vestibular function and cognition will be developed.

Interventions
Traditional vestibule rehabilitation training
* Standing, using a gaze tracking system on a force plate to track a continuously moving target, with alerts when body sway exceeds a certain threshold. * Standing, wearing an inertial sensor on the head and performing left-right or up-down head movements while maintaining gaze on a target, with a screen providing feedback on head movement speed. * Standing, controlling body weight distribution on the force plate to reach a target position, with a screen displaying the current center of gravity position. * Walking, synchronizing head movements with a rhythm or performing up-down head nods, with auditory cues indicating the desired head movement frequency. * During continuous head rotations, stepping in a regular sequence of forward, backward, left, and right movements.
Dual-task vestibule rehabilitation training
* Adding a dual task of digit countdown and recitation to clinical balance training exercises. * Incorporating a numerical calculation task into interactive screens during clinical balance training, with the participant's responses input by the researchers. * Introducing upper limb exercises, such as button pressing or arm swinging, during clinical balance training. * During continuous head rotations, following visual prompts on the display to perform forward, backward, left, and right displacements.
