Cochlear implantation for tinnitus in adults with bilateral hearing loss: protocol of a randomised controlled trial

Abstract: IntroductionTinnitus is the perception of sound without an external stimulus, often experienced as a ringing or buzzing sound. Subjective tinnitus is assumed to origin from changes in neural activity caused by reduced or lack of auditory input, for instance due to hearing loss. Since auditory deprivation is thought to be one of the causes of tinnitus, increasing the auditory input by cochlear implantation might be a possible treatment. In studies assessing cochlear implantation for patients with hearing loss, … Show more

“…Implantation is now available to a broader group of individuals compared to when implants were first introduced in the 70's. Individuals are now more commonly implanted with a CI system when they suffer from unilateral deafness (Carlson et al, 2018), or intractable tinnitus (Assouly et al, 2021), and in the presence of increasing amounts of residual hearing (Varadarajan et al, 2020).…”
