During the last years, the demand of accurate diagnostic tools for individualized tinnitus treatment gradually increased. Today several different psychometric instruments for the estimation of the patients degree of decompensation with clinical relevance have emerged. All of these tools are questionnaires for a subjective self-assessment and have deficits in comparability due to severe differences in their factor structure in the anamnesis. Those questionnaires thus they are only of limited value in the design of an individualized therapeutic approach. Objective diagnostic tools for the categorization of the patients' distress level are lacking in clinical routine. Scientific approaches yet demonstrated the feasibility of individual distress assessment by objective markers in the EEG. In this article we present the preliminary results of our study of a use of habituation correlates as objective indicator for the decompensation degree in high-distress tinnitus patients.
在过去几年中，用于个体化耳鸣治疗的精确诊断工具的需求逐渐增加。如今，已经出现了几种不同的心理测量工具，用于评估具有临床相关性的患者失代偿程度。所有这些工具都是用于主观自我评估的问卷，由于其病史中的因素结构存在严重差异，在可比性方面存在缺陷。因此，这些问卷在个体化治疗方法的设计中价值有限。临床常规中缺乏用于对患者痛苦程度进行分类的客观诊断工具。科学方法已经证明了通过脑电图中的客观标志物进行个体痛苦评估的可行性。在本文中，我们展示了一项研究的初步结果，该研究将习惯化相关指标用作高度痛苦耳鸣患者失代偿程度的客观指标。
