Understanding the Trial Results
This research looked at how Ginkgo biloba extracts can help patients with vestibular neuritis (VN) when used with vestibular rehabilitation training (VRT). Here’s what the study found:
- What worked: Combining Ginkgo biloba extracts with VRT showed better results than VRT alone. Patients had:
- Improved balance and stability
- A shorter treatment time
- A better overall quality of life
- What didn’t work: The study focused on the benefits of Ginkgo biloba with VRT, so it didn’t assess VRT by itself without any supplements in detail.
Benefits for Patients and Clinics
By integrating Ginkgo biloba extracts into treatment plans, clinics can:
- Provide a more effective treatment option for patients suffering from VN
- Enhance patient recovery by improving balance and reducing recovery time
Real-World Opportunities
Hospitals and doctors can use these findings to:
- Adopt Ginkgo biloba extracts as a standard part of VN treatment
- Educate patients about the benefits of combining Ginkgo biloba with VRT
- Enhance patient engagement through improved outcomes
Measurable Outcomes
Clinics should monitor the following after applying these results:
- Balance and stability improvements in patients
- Duration of treatment for patients
- Overall quality of life scores from patient feedback
AI Tools for Implementation
If relevant, clinics can explore AI tools to:
- Track patient progress and outcomes using data analytics
- Personalize treatment plans based on individual patient data
Step-by-Step Plan for Clinics
Clinics can start applying these findings through a gradual approach:
- Start small: Introduce Ginkgo biloba extracts to a few patients currently undergoing VRT.
- Monitor outcomes: Keep track of patient improvements in balance, treatment duration, and quality of life.
- Gather feedback: Ask patients about their experiences with the new combined treatment.
- Evaluate: Review the collected data to see if the combination of Ginkgo biloba and VRT is effective.
- Expand: If successful, gradually include Ginkgo biloba extracts in treatment for more patients.
