Background: In chronic subjective tinnitus, existing therapeutic approaches often fall short. This study addresses this gap by exploring the efficacy of multimodal sound therapy guided by fine examination. The study focused on providing a scientific foundation for more accurate auditory evaluation, offering novel insights into managing tinnitus-related disabilities.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of multimodal sound therapy, guided by fine examination, in the clinical diagnosis of chronic subjective tinnitus.
Methods: A total of 100 patients with chronic subjective tinnitus treated in our hospital from March 2018 to March 2019 were selected as study subjects. They were divided into an experimental group and a control group based on the order of admission. The experimental group (n=50) received treatment involving various complex sounds, while the control group (n=50) received drug therapy. Fine examination was conducted in both groups, and tinnitus disability was compared. Additionally, the tinnitus disability scale score, Pittsburgh sleep quality index, and Hamilton depression and anxiety scale score were compared between the two groups.
Results: After three months of treatment, the experimental group demonstrated noteworthy improvements compared to the control group. Significant reductions in tinnitus disability (P < .05), along with notable enhancements in sleep quality (P < .05), and decreased scores for depression and anxiety (P < .05) were observed in the experimental group, highlighting the efficacy of multimodal sound therapy in addressing these aspects of chronic subjective tinnitus.
Conclusions: Fine examination serves as a scientific foundation for the auditory evaluation of tinnitus patients, facilitating more precise localization of the tinnitus point. Multimodal sound therapy demonstrates a notable impact on chronic subjective tinnitus, warranting further exploration and widespread application.
