Attenuation of Tonal Tinnitus by Lateral Inhibition Therapy

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Lateral Inhibition Therapy (TIL) corrects the patient's hearing by notched amplification on the patient's listening soundtrack. This half-octave notch is targeted at tinnitus frequencies measured tonal. The device slightly increases the amplification around the notch, so that the cerebral cortex compensates for this "gap" in the sound spectrum, masking the crippling tinnitus at the same time. This research is based on a new algorithm developed by the SIEMENS Company which proposes an attenuation of tonal tinnitus by a TIL by notched amplification emitted by the hearing device, object of the study.

Conditions

  • Tinnitus

Interventions

DEVICE

Auditory simulation

Each patient will be delivered each of the 2 auditory stimulation protocols considered in the context of the research: stimulation with a traditional algorithm called AT and stimulation with a notched-type algorithm called AE. The order in which will be carried out, for the same patient, each of these 2 protocols (AT then AE or AE then AT) will be randomized.
