Tinnitus Patient Preferences Survey

This survey aims to understand your preferences regarding future treatments for chronic tinnitus (ringing in the ears) that involve a surgically-placed brain implant. Researchers want to know your thoughts on accepting such an implant, the risks of surgery, how easy it would be to use, and your willingness to pay for it. The information you provide will help Neurosoft Bioelectronics develop a new, minimally invasive brain implant to help people with tinnitus. You can join if you are 18 or older and have subjective (only you can hear it), chronic tinnitus that has lasted at least 3 months and is bothersome. The main goal is to understand how acceptable these invasive treatments are to patients after one year. This study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.

    Risks acceptance and user preferences will be assessed through responses to the survey. The outcome will be summarized in the form of a percentage or similar statistics on acceptances rates for surgical interventions in patients with chronic tinnitus. Acceptance rates will also be evaluated in accordance to several clinical characteristics of tinnitus, such as its perceived annoyance or loudness.
