“…In our population, we found a higher prevalence of hyperacusis in the female population, which contrasts earlier studies (13,14,41,42). Individuals with hyperacusis were in fact slightly younger compared to those with tinnitus, although the age difference was much smaller compared to similar findings (14).…”

“…Studies have shown that hyperacusis is related to tinnitus loudness, discomfort, and annoyance as well as depressive symptoms (14). However, no significant correlation between the presence of hyperacusis and tinnitus annoyance could be found (13). Also, researchers showed in their analysis that hyperacusis has a high comorbidity with psychiatric diagnoses and somatic syndromes (12).…”

“…Estimations suggest that 40% to 55% of patients with tinnitus comorbidly suffer from hyperacusis (11). Conflicting data regarding hyperacusis in relation to gender exist; while one study found hyperacusis to be more common among females (12), other data found it to be more frequent among males (13,14). Also, people with self-reported hyperacusis are younger and have higher education than people whose hyperacusis was diagnosed by a physician (12).…”

Aim: Tinnitus and hyperacusis are phenomena with a considerable prevalence in the general population, leading to high levels of suffering. It is a symptom that can present itself comorbidly with a variety of psychiatric and medical illnesses. We established a treatment of tinnitus and hyperacusis, which is based on a multimodal approach including a specific cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) method in an inpatient setting. This approach includes education on tinnitus and hyperacusis, applying coping strategies and techniques of relaxation, directed attention, and music therapy. We aim to evaluate the efficacy of this treatment approach.Materials and Methods: We included retrospective data of 268 patients who underwent tinnitus treatment throughout the 10-year existence of the treatment program. We assessed routine clinical data pretreatment and posttreatment with parameters concerning tinnitus-distress, hyperacusis, and psychological well-being. To determine these variables, we used validated instruments including the Tinnitus Questionnaire (TQ), Questionnaire on Hypersensitivity to Sound (QHS), Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI), and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II).Results: Patients showed highly significant reduction in all of the examined clinical outcomes. Reduction of TQ, the primary outcome measure, was 15.39 (SD 21.88) from a mean baseline value of 35.72 (p < 0.001). The QHS showed a reduction of 6.72 (SD 8.23) from a mean baseline value of 18.98 (p < 0.001). Moreover, psychological strain was also reduced with high significance, as illustrated in reduction of BSI and BDI-II; reduction in BSI from 49.63 by 24.41 (SD 26.88; p < 0.001) and BDI-II from 16.89 by 7.47 (SD 8.76; p < 0.001).

“…O zumbido, tinnitus, é a sensação auditiva na ausência de uma fonte sonora externa (GUIMARÃES et al, 2014). O termo tinnitus, empregado na língua inglesa, deriva do verbo tinnire em Latim, que significa tocar ou ressoar, demonstrando a sensação e a percepção do som que não está presente no ambiente (BAGULEY et al, 2013).…”

Este trabalho objetivou realizar uma análise do discurso do profissional fonoaudiólogo com base na teoria dialógica durante o atendimento de pacientes com zumbido utilizando o Cuidado Centrado na Pessoa. Temos em vista a construção da Interação discursiva (VOLÓCHINOV, 2017) a partir do momento que a profissional se utiliza do Cuidado Centrado na Pessoa. Nesse sentido, nossa pretensão foi averiguar como os sentidos se concretizam no diálogo entre a fonoaudióloga e seus pacientes. Os dizeres aqui construídos têm subsídio teórico nos pressupostos de Bakhtin (2006a, 2006b, 2010), Volóchinov (2017) e Medviédev (2016), ao tratarem da problemática do discurso. Em perspectiva dialógico-discursiva, no âmbito das discussões em Ciências Humanas, divide-se este trabalho em três seções. Buscamos, na primeira seção, apresentar considerações basilares sobre o zumbido e como este é tratado por meio do Cuidado Centrado na Pessoa. Na segunda seção, realizamos uma discussão sobre a importância do uso do Cuidado Centrado na Pessoa no atendimento de pacientes com zumbido; enquanto a terceira seção compreende a análise, em que averiguamos, por meio de abordagem dialógica, o discurso da profissional fonoaudióloga sobre zumbido.

Prevalence of tinnitus and/or hyperacusis in children and adolescents: study protocol for a systematic review

et al. 2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

IntroductionThere is some debate as to what extent epidemiological data for the prevalence of childhood tinnitus can be relied on. While indications are that the prevalence is relatively high, referral numbers for children with tinnitus are reported to be low and many of the studies have a number of methodological difficulties. We describe the protocol of a systematic review aimed at assessing the prevalence of tinnitus and/or hyperacusis in children and young people.Methods and analysisWe will include studies of any design (except case reports or case series) comparing the prevalence of tinnitus and/or hyperacusis in children and young people with and without hearing loss, any known external exposure and psychological disorders. We will search the following databases: PubMed, EMBASE and Scopus. No restrictions of language will be applied in the search strategy but during the article selection language is limited to English, German and Scandinavian languages. Primary and additional outcomes will be the prevalence of tinnitus/hyperacusis and the severity, respectively.Ethics and disseminationNo ethical issues are foreseen. The results will be published in a peer-reviewed journal and presented at national and international conferences of audiology and paediatrics.Trail registration numberThis review protocol is registered in the PROSPERO International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews, registration number CRD42014013456.
