This case report describes a patient who exhibited the usual complaints of frustration, annoyance, and lack of sleep associated with severe tinnitus. After 2 months of weekly biofeedback sessions along with home training with a portable thermal biofeedback unit, the patient was relieved of the psychological symptoms associated with the tinnitus. A 1-year follow-up demonstrated that the patient remained complaint-free of psychological symptoms although the subjective loudness of the ringing was judged to be the same as at the onset of the tinnitus. The results indicate that biofeedback is a useful procedure in the treatment of severe tinnitus.
本病例报告描述了一名患者，该患者表现出与严重耳鸣相关的常见症状，如沮丧、烦恼和睡眠不足。在每周进行2个月的生物反馈治疗，并使用便携式热生物反馈设备进行家庭训练后，患者与耳鸣相关的心理症状得到缓解。1年的随访表明，尽管耳鸣的主观响度被判定与耳鸣发作时相同，但患者仍无心理症状。结果表明，生物反馈是治疗严重耳鸣的一种有效方法。
