In the recent years, there has been an increasing interest in the potential of internet- and smartphone-based technologies for the support of tinnitus patients. A broad spectrum of relevant approaches, some in the form of studies, others in the form of market products, have been mentioned in literature. They include auditory treatments, internet-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (iCBT), serious games, and questionnaires for tinnitus monitoring. The goal of this study is to highlight the role of existing internet-based and smart technologies for the advancement of tinnitus clinical practice: we consider contributions that refer to treatments and diagnostics, and we include contributions refering to self-help measures. We elaborate on the potential and challenges of such solutions and identify constraints associated to their deployment, such as the demand for familiarity with internet-based services and the need to re-design interactive services so that they fit on the small surface of a smartwatch.
近年来，基于互联网和智能手机的技术在支持耳鸣患者方面的潜力越来越受到关注。文献中提到了广泛的相关方法，有些是以研究的形式，有些是以市场产品的形式。它们包括听觉治疗、基于互联网的认知行为疗法（iCBT）、严肃游戏以及耳鸣监测问卷。本研究的目的是强调现有基于互联网和智能技术在推进耳鸣临床实践中的作用：我们考虑涉及治疗和诊断的贡献，并且我们纳入了涉及自助措施的贡献。我们详细阐述了此类解决方案的潜力和挑战，并确定了与其部署相关的限制因素，例如对基于互联网服务的熟悉度要求以及重新设计交互式服务以使其适合智能手表小屏幕的需求。
