Study Summary

The goal of this study is to determine whether external neuromodulation using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can reduce the perception of self-motion that is experienced by individuals with mal de debarquement syndrome (MdDS). Mal de debarquement is translated as the "sickness of disembarkment," and refers to the chronic feeling of rocking dizziness that occurs after exposure to passive motion. Treatment for MdDS is limited and morbidity is high. The goal of the study is to determine whether rTMS can suppress the rocking dizziness of MdDS.

Primary Outcome

The Dizziness Handicap Inventory is a widely used measure of subjective dizziness in which 25 questions of dizziness inducing events are rated on a scale of 0-2-4. The maximum number of points is 100 points which are divided into the following levels: 16-34 Points (mild handicap), 36-52 Points (moderate handicap), 54+ Points (severe handicap).
