Tinnitus masker
Tinnitus masker uses broadband noise to
provide temporary relief of tinnitus.
Tinnitus masker warnings
The tinnitus masker is a broadband sound
generator. It provides a means of sound
enrichment therapy that can be used as
part of a personalized tinnitus management
program to provide temporary relief from
tinnitus.
The underlying principle of sound
enrichment is to provide supplementary
noise stimulation which can help defocus
your attention from your tinnitus and avoid
negative reactions. Sound enrichment,
coupled with instructional counseling, is an
established approach to managing tinnitus.
Air conduction hearing aids with the tinnitus
masker are to be tted by a hearing care
professional familiar with the diagnosis and
management of tinnitus.
Should you develop any side eects
while using the tinnitus masker, such as
headaches, nausea, dizziness or heart
palpitations or experience a decrease
in auditory function such as decreased
loudness tolerance, worsening of tinnitus, or
speech not as clear, you should discontinue
use of the device and seek medical
attention.
The volume of the tinnitus masker can be
set to a level which could lead to permanent
hearing damage when used for a prolonged
period of time. Should the tinnitus masker
be set to such a level in your hearing aids,
your hearing care professional will advise
you of the maximum amount of time per day
you should use the tinnitus masker.
The tinnitus masker should never be used at
uncomfortable levels.
