Brief Summary:
The aim of our study is to determine the severity of the disease in people with Meniere's Disease; physical conditions such as balance, posture, pain, physical activity level, neck joint range of motion, proprioception; to examine psychosocial conditions such as depression, anxiety, sleep quality, fatigue, and quality of life and to make a comprehensive evaluation by comparing it with healthy volunteers.
Detailed Description:
Meniere's disease (MD) is an inner ear disease characterized by independent attacks and lasting for at least 20 minutes, dizziness, recurrent hearing loss during seizures, tinnitus, fullness in the ear, and a feeling of headache. After the diagnosis of the disease, the most disturbing situation for the patient is the uncertainty of the progression of the disease and the deterioration of the quality of life. It is very difficult to know and predict how the disease will progress. Quality of life is impaired by current symptoms and may be further reduced by uncertainty about when another attack may occur and activity restriction due to fear of provoking symptoms with exertion or stress.
When the studies on MD are examined, it is seen that the symptoms affect not only certain physical conditions but also psychological conditions. It has been observed that psychological factors play a more important role than is commonly realized in terms of their impact on patients' quality of life. MD has a negative impact on the person's daily life, and the person avoids certain daily activities or situations because of the illness. Looking at the literature, it is not known whether the severity of disease symptoms or whether the psychological state precedes the physical state.
In light of all this information, MD appears to be a multifaceted condition that can have major and often alarming effects on the lives of affected individuals. Therefore, it is important to evaluate individuals with MD with a holistic approach.
The aim of our study is to determine the severity of the disease in people with Meniere's Disease; physical conditions such as balance, posture, pain, physical activity level, neck joint range of motion, proprioception; to examine psychosocial conditions such as depression, anxiety, sleep quality, fatigue, and quality of life and to make a comprehensive evaluation by comparing it with healthy volunteers.
