About this trial
The goal of this survey is to assess several aspects related to patient preferences regarding interventions for alleviating tinnitus through invasive electrical brain stimulation (neuromodulation). This survey covers the acceptance of a surgically-placed brain implant, of its associated risks related to the neurosurgical procedure, usability considerations, and the willingness/ability to pay for such a treatment.
Neurosoft Bioelectronics will use the collected patients' feedback and usability preferences data for the development of a novel minimally invasive brain implant aimed at alleviating tinnitus.
