Tinnitus

Experiencing tinnitus: which factors are important for perceived severity of the symptom?

This study attempted to determine those factors important for predicting the experienced severity of tinnitus. For this purpose, we examined affected patients’ perception of tinnitus as an illness, comorbidity, scores on locus of control, length of time since onset of tinnitus, pitch and loudness of tinnitus sounds, and depression. One hundred and forty-nine patients (72 […]


Appearance and characteristics of tinnitus in childhood

The appearance of tinnitus has risen clearly also in children within the last decades. 1550 children were questioned as to whether they have tinnitus. A total of 131 children said at the interview that tinnitus had appeared or was still present. The most frequent information was the progression of an existing hardness of hearing followed […]


A study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a single infusion of caroverine in cases of

Caroverine a quinoxaline derivative, with glutamate antagonistic activity was used for cochlear synaptic tinnitus. A pilot study was done first in 4 cases at our centre. Two cases with pure cochlear synaptic tinnitus responded well to Caroverine while other two cases had tinnitus due to middle ear pathology and did not respond. Encouraged by these […]


The use of enoxaparin for the treatment of tinnitus.

Microthrombotic vascular lesions could be the primary or secondary cause but, however, in most of the cases are at the base of the lesions of tinnitus. On those bases we consider that a therapy with enoxaparine has a wide field of action. Two hundred cases of patients, who had suffered from tinnitus for at least […]


Gene-based diagnostic and treatment methods for tinnitus

The etiology of tinnitus combines hereditary and environmental factors. To help develop optimal therapies for tinnitus, it is necessary to characterize the genetic contributors to the pathophysiology and to design treatments at the level of the gene. Inner ear gene therapy involves delivery of genes into the vestibular or auditory portions of the inner ear […]


Tinnitus suppression therapy

It has long been suspected that an important relationship exists between inner and outer hair cells, and that a disturbance of this relationship could lead to the phenomenon of tinnitus. The electromodel of the auditory system describes one mechanism of this inter-hair cell relationship. Following this model a mechanism exists, driven by mechanosensitive outer hair […]


Use of high-frequency and muscle vibration in the treatment of tinnitus

Although tinnitus is defined as an internal auditory sensation, external auditory stimuli can mask tinnitus under some circumstances. High-frequency vibration delivered as bone conduction stimulation is effective in masking high-pitched tinnitus. In this preliminary report, somatosensory stimulation in the form of low-frequency muscle vibration can also mask high-frequency tinnitus. Somatosensory stimulation provides fast, immediate relief, […]


Changes in distortion product otoacoustic emissions in tinnitus patients treated by acupuncture. preliminary report

Introduction: Acupuncture is a therapeutic technique based on the concepts of the Traditional Chinese Medicine, which mechanism of action could be explained by the efferent nervous system from stimulation of specific points on the body surface. Aim: The objective is to study the acupuncture effects in the treatment of tinnitus, and the changes provoked on […]


Palatal and middle-ear myoclonus: a cause for objective tinnitus

The cause of objective tinnitus provoked by palatal and middle-ear myoclonus may be identified by magnetic resonance imaging of the central nervous system in the Guilliain-Mollaret triangle or it may be idiopathic. The idiopathic cases are rare. From the literature, one can perceive the following unanswered questions: (1) Are palatal and middle-ear myoclonus different entities […]


Intra ear catheter (iec) – 3 years experience

On the ENT Dept at 3rd Medical Faculty of Charles University Prague has been used 15 IEC for the therapy at chronic tinnitus. The succes ratio is evaluated by the mean of visual analogue scala (VAS) and by tinnitometr i.e. by meassurment of intensity (dB) and frequency (Hz) of tinnitus. Duration of tinnitus oscillated between […]
