Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1This study has already been completed — does that mean the results are published somewhere, and if so, what did they find about how common positional nystagmus actually is in healthy people?
2Since this trial enrolled healthy volunteers rather than people with a diagnosed condition, what does it mean for me personally if positional nystagmus shows up during my own evaluation — is it necessarily a sign of something wrong?
3This was an observational study measuring how often positional nystagmus occurs naturally, so how might its findings change the way doctors like you interpret my test results if I show signs of it?
4Given that this research focused on prevalence in healthy adults, could its findings help clarify whether what I'm experiencing falls within a normal range or genuinely warrants further investigation?
5Are there any follow-up studies or clinical trials building on this one that might be more directly relevant to my situation, especially if I've already been diagnosed with a vestibular or balance-related condition?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
