Official title
Internet-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Tinnitus Sufferers: Comparing the Full CBT Program With Relaxation Only Program
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Nearly 50 million people in the U.S. experience tinnitus, of which about 20 million people have burdensome chronic tinnitus. Tinnitus can be very debilitating as many aspects of daily life can be affected, such as sleep, mood, and concentration. Currently, there is no cure for tinnitus. Pharmacological or sound-therapy based interventions are sometimes provided but may be of limited value to certain individuals. Research suggests that Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) based approaches have the most evidence of effectiveness in the management of tinnitus. However, CBT is rarely offered to tinnitus sufferers in the U.S. (less than 1%), partly because of lack of trained professionals who can deliver CBT. To improve access to CBT for tinnitus, an online CBT program has been developed. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the full CBT administered via the Internet results in better outcomes when compared to relaxation only CBT administered via the Internet for adults with tinnitus in the United States.
