Persistent Oscillating Vertigo From Extracranial Venous Compression MdDS Foundation 1:46 pm 9.18.2025 Persistent Oscillating Vertigo From Extracranial Venous Compression Persistent oscillating vertigo (POV) can be triggered by motion, when it is called mal de débarquement syndrome (MdDS) but can also occur from nonmotion triggers such as neck injury, inflammation, or homeostatic derangements (nonmotion POV [nmPOV]). The pathology underlying MdDS and nmPOV is unknown but shared symptoms include rocking/bobbing/swaying vertigo, headache, cognitive slowing, and fatigue. Read More

Symptom reduction in mal de débarquement syndrome with attenuation of the velocity storage contribution in the central vestibular pathways MdDS Foundation 12:01 am 2.29.2024 Symptom reduction in mal de débarquement syndrome with attenuation of the velocity storage contribution in the central vestibular pathways Abstract Background: The velocity storage mechanism of the central vestibular system is closely associated with the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR), but also contributes to the sense of orientation in space and the perception of self-motion. We postulate that mal de débarquement syndrome (MdDS) is a consequence of inappropriate sensory adaptation of velocity storage. The premise that […] Read More
Assessing the synergistic effectiveness of intermittent theta burst stimulation and the vestibular ocular reflex rehabilitation protocol in the treatment of Mal de Debarquement Syndrome: a randomised controlled trial MdDS Foundation 12:01 am 2.12.2024 Assessing the synergistic effectiveness of intermittent theta burst stimulation and the vestibular ocular reflex rehabilitation protocol in the treatment of Mal de Debarquement Syndrome: a randomised controlled trial Abstract Introduction: Mal de Debarquement Syndrome (MdDS) is a rare central vestibular disorder characterised by a constant sensation of motion (rocking, swaying, bobbing), which typically arises after motion experiences (e.g. sea, air, and road travel), though can be triggered by non-motion events. The current standard of care is non-specific medications and interventions that only result […] Read More
Questioning the impact of vestibular rehabilitation in Mal de Debarquement Syndrome MdDS Foundation 12:00 am 10.11.2023 Questioning the impact of vestibular rehabilitation in Mal de Debarquement Syndrome 3 different participants: 1 healthy control; 1 with peripheral vestibular impairment (VI); 1 with MdDS; results question the use of VR as an efficient treatment option for MdDS. Future studies must recruit a larger sample size and focus on the relationship between illusion of movement and postural characteristics such as sway velocity. Read More
Treatment options in Mal de Débarquement Syndrome: A scoping review MdDS Foundation 12:01 am 4.1.2023 Treatment options in Mal de Débarquement Syndrome: A scoping review The purpose of this study was to review current treatment options available for mal de debarquement syndrome (MdDS). Read More
