The article discusses a study that looked at the effectiveness of using a prototype device for electrical and magnetic stimulation of the ear to treat tinnitus. The study involved 100 patients with tinnitus, and the results showed that the treatment had a high effectiveness in reducing the loudness of tinnitus. The treatment involved using the prototype device for 10 five-minute stimulations performed daily, and the results showed that there was an improvement in tinnitus in 79% of the patients immediately after treatment.
The researchers also found that there was no negative effect of the stimulation on hearing or tinnitus, and the treatment was safe to use. The prototype device for electromagnetic stimulation of the ear was specially designed and constructed for the diagnosis and treatment of subjective tinnitus. The study is ongoing, and further research is needed to fully assess the effectiveness and safety of the treatment. Overall, the preliminary research results show promise in using magnetic stimulation to treat tinnitus, and the study provides valuable insights into potential treatment options for tinnitus.
