| Summary: | The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors related to tinnitus affecting Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) scores. THI, VAS (Visual Analog Scale), Tinnitus history questionnaire, pure-tone audiometry, tinnitogram were conducted with 201 participants who suffered from tinnitus. Among them, 161 subjects had hearing loss. Results indicated that the loudness of tinnitus significantly related to THI scores. However, coefficient of determination was low. THI scores were significantly higher in subjects with unilateral tinnitus than bilateral tinnitus. However, hearing thresholds, gender, onset of tinnitus, type of tinnitus, frequency of tinnitus were not significantly related to THI scores. There was a significant correlation between the subtests of VAS and THI scores. The results of the present study suggest that objective factors related to tinnitus may not predict the degree of tinnitus discomfort and its handicap. KCI Citation Count: 10 |
