About This Fibromyalgia Study in New York

Fibromyalgia is the most common centralized pain disorder, affecting up to 3% of the population. Current treatments are incompletely effective, often poorly tolerated, and costly: there remains an urgent need for novel, effective, and well-tolerated therapy. Preliminary data suggests that vestibulocortical stimulation (VCS), or irrigating the external ear canal with temperate water, could rapidly improve pain and quality of life in this cohort. The VIPR trial will assess the efficacy of a single session of VCS - a safe \& cost-effective bedside technique using a plastic syringe and temperate water - relative to sham in treating pain \& improving quality of life using validated patient-reported outcomes.

Sponsor: Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
