Tinnitus, Subjective

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.

This study tests whether pairing non-invasive stimulation of the greater occipital nerve (NITESGON) with an attentionally demanding auditory frequency discrimination training task reduces tinnitus loudness and tinnitus-related distress. One hundred adults with chronic tonal tinnitus will be randomised to one of four groups in a 2×2 factorial design: real versus sham NITESGON and active versus passive listening during auditory stimulation. Participants complete eight sessions across four weeks, with outcomes assessed at baseline, end of treatment, 28 days post-treatment, and 6 months post-treatment.

Tinnitus (ringing or buzzing in the ears) affects approximately 10-15% of the adult population and significantly reduces quality of life in many patients. In a substantial proportion of cases, tinnitus is associated with dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and cervical spine - this subtype is called somatosensory tinnitus. This randomised controlled trial investigates the effectiveness of a multimodal intervention combining: (1) physiotherapy targeting TMJ and cervical spine dysfunction, (2) a structured combined exercise program (aerobic + resistance + breathing), and (3) psychological support (cognitive-behavioural psychoeducation) in patients with chronic somatosensory tinnitus. The study also examines the acute effects of different types and intensities of physical exercise on tinnitus perception, and performs psychometric validation of Czech-language tinnitus assessment questionnaires. Participants (N=160, aged 18-70 years) will be randomly assigned to either the multimodal intervention group (8 weeks, 5 sessions/week) or a control group. Follow-up assessments will be conducted at 3, 12, and 24 months. The primary outcome is the change in the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) score.

The goal of this interventional clinical study is to establish mild therapeutic hypothermia, delivered non-invasively to the structures of the inner ear, as a safe and repeatable therapeutic method for symptomatic relief of tinnitus. The study will assess both objective and subjective measures to address two main aims: 1. Ascertain the benefits of mild therapeutic hypothermia for symptomatic relief of chronic tinnitus in participants using the ReBound hypothermia device. 2. Ascertain the benefits of mild therapeutic hypothermia for symptom management in chronic tinnitus participants over six months using the ReBound device. Participants will wear the ReBound hypothermia device for 30 minutes in a single session. Researchers will compare results from those receiving the therapy to those from a control group (sham therapy). Participants will also use the device in-home for 6 months and monitor their symptoms with online surveys.

Our ecological approach to neuromodulation in the field of "acouphonology" empowers tinnitus patients to act as their own source of sound stimuli through audio-proprio-phonatory reinforcement (APPR). By engaging in self-phonations, individuals uncoverthe vast potential for sound production, which can effectively mask their tinnitus or induce residual inhibition, all without relying on external sources. This clinical study aims to illustrate the positive impact of audio-proprio-phonatory reinforcement training on individuals suffering from chronic subjective tinnitus. This will be further supported and quantified through high-definition electroencephalography (HD EEG) as we explore the relationship between changes in connectivity within specific brain regions and the varying degrees of response to the therapeutic protocol.

The goal of this remote interventional clinical study is to investigate the use of mild therapeutic hypothermia devices for the symptomatic relief of chronic tinnitus. The main aims of the study are: 1. Ascertain the effects of MTH in chronic tinnitus patients using questionnaires measuring tinnitus severity and intervention-related change. 2. Ascertain the comfort and acceptability of the hypothermia device and therapy. Participants with chronic tinnitus will wear the mild therapeutic hypothermia therapy devices for a single 30 minute session. Researchers will compare results from those receiving therapy to those from a control group.

there is evidence that tinnitus (chronic subjective form) is highly prevalent among patients with obstructive sleep apnea. exercise is recommneded in chronic subjective form) and obstructive sleep apnea. walking with dog increase adherence to walking to maintain continuity of physical activity

obese male usually complain subjective tinnitus that may affect their sexual function.

This clinical study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled, double-blind clinical study. Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat sen University was the central unit, and Nanjing First Hospital, Sun Yat Sen people's Hospital, Guanfzhou Panyu central Hospital and Zhuhai integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine hospital were the cooperative units. In this study, 388 patients with chronic subjective tinnitus were recruited. In view of chronic subjective tinnitus, a common ear disease, the study gave the patients three months of treatment with transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation paired with tailor-made notched music therapy or tailor-made notched music training alone. By comparing the changes of subjective scale scores related to tinnitus before and after treatment in patients receiving two different therapies, such as THI, VAS, BAI, BDI, PSQI, to evaluate the efficacy of the two therapies, so as to judge whether transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation paired with tailor-made notched music therapy is better than tailor-made notched music training alone. In addition, the study will continue to follow up the patients after the treatment for one year to observe the difference in the long-term sustained efficacy of the two therapies. This clinical study will also evaluate the two therapies from the perspective of compliance and safety, and explore the factors that affect the efficacy of the two therapies.
