About this study
In plain language
The HEADS Registry follows U.S. adults who have sinus, balance, hearing, or headache symptoms over time. Participants answer online questions about their symptoms, how they affect daily life, and how well treatments have helped. The goal is to better understand these symptoms and improve diagnosis and treatment.
The Headache, Ear, Auditory, Dizziness, Sinus (HEADS) Registry is a study over time of individuals living in the United States who experience sinus, vestibular, auditory, and headache symptoms. Through an online portal, participants are asked questions about their symptoms, how they have affected their lives, and how effectively they have managed them. This information is then used to better understand these symptoms and to improve patient diagnosis and treatment. Some potential research benefits of the HEADS Registry include: * Improving healthcare professionals' understanding of the causes of specific head and neck symptoms. * Reducing delays in diagnosis and the use of inappropriate tests, medications, and surgeries. * Finding the most effective treatments for sinus, vestibular, and auditory disorders. * Providing participants the opportunity to be contacted for additional important research related to sinus, vestibular, and auditory disorders. All U.S. residents over the age of majority who experience sinus, vestibular, and auditory symptoms, with or without migraine, are eligible to participate. Enrollment is voluntary, confidential, and free of charge.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
