Neuromonics went from the best tinnitus treatment to obsolete in just 10 years. See, Neuromonics was a medical device technology that audiologists would administer for their tinnitus patients. Basically, you’d be given a small device that played audio tracks. It looked kind of like the original iPod. Patients would then listen to an auditory training program with high-quality headphones that sit up and behind the ear. They would hear a pattern of acoustic stimuli designed to retrain their neural pathways. Mostly high frequencies that would bounce around their tinnitus. One reason why Neuromonics was unique was because it leveraged music as a medium for treatment. The goal was to create positive engagement of the limbic system — which is tied to our emotional responses. The program was designed to create a sense of relaxation and desensitize the brain to the sound of tinnitus, in an effort to promote the natural brain process of habituation. Everyone with tinnitus has different symptoms, so Neuromonics was a bit of a ‘hot, cold’ test. Patients would undergo this treatment for 2-4 hours a day, for months at a time — depending on the severity of their tinnitus. After not much time… this approach spread like wildfire. Early-adopting audiologists were flocking to this new technology-powered treatment, eager to see if it could help their patients. Then, over time, Neuromonics were replaced by modern hearing aids. Especially when Bluetooth came out — that made sound therapy so much more accessible. While Neuromonics might be considered outdated by today’s standards… It was still impactful. And today’s leading tinnitus treatments are still ones that promote habituation, just with better technology and a more comprehensive approach. As audiologists, we must always stay on the forefront of new technologies, but also be aware that they don’t always work, and they might not last very long before we realize the standard mode of care is better or something new and more effective comes along. Here’s to providing the best tinnitus care possible, to every tinnitus patient we engage with. ______________________________________ I'm Ben Thompson, AuD, leading tinnitus specialist, YouTuber and Founder of Treble Health. ➡️ Join my FREE Tinnitus Newsletter: https://treble.health/go Where every month, you get exclusive access to: ✔ the latest news and tinnitus-related developments ✔ tips for tinnitus prevention, management and treatment ✔ best practice strategies to increase your value

📢 New Publication 📢 🚀 Excited to share our latest publication exploring the inter-phase gap (IPG) offset effect — a promising method for representing neural health in cochlear implant (CI) users, based on the electrically-evoked compound action potential (ECAP). Our study aimed to unravel the relationships between the IPG offset effect, ECAP thresholds, preoperative hearing levels, and electrode impedances among CI recipients with residual acoustic hearing. 🔍 Our research involved 17 adults receiving a CI at the University Hospital of Zurich, and provided insights into how the IPG offset effect correlates with various cochlear and neural health metrics. The outcomes revealed an unexpected positive correlation with the ECAP threshold in intraoperative recordings and suggested a participant-dependent effect of electrode impedance on IPG offset. Findings highlight the complex interpretatability of the IPG offset effect in CI recipients with preoperative acoustic hearing, which is especially relevant considering the increasing proportion of this group among CI users. 💡 Dive into our study for a comprehensive understanding of the IPG offset’s relationships and their implications for enhancing CI outcomes: https://lnkd.in/eUVcatPk #CochlearImplants #NeuralHealth #AudiologyResearch #ClinicalInnovation #OtoBM #Research #USZ #UZH

🔬Into the Cochlea: 3D imaging for deeper insights into hearing pathology! We recently had the pleasure of hosting MD, PhD Serhii Kostrikov for an inspiring talk 🙌 Serhii is an expert in brain imaging and assistant professor at the Center for Auditory Neuroscience, Department of Health Technology at DTU - Technical University of Denmark. His presentation, “Leveraging the Power of 3D Microscopy and Advanced Image Analysis for Deciphering Nuances of Cochlear Pathology”, explored innovative techniques that enhance our understanding of hearing loss. A key focus was the study of cochlear blood vessels and their link to hearing-related diseases. By utilizing advanced imaging methods, such as light sheet microscopy of cochlea tissue, and developing machine learning workflows, Serhii’s team creates detailed 3D images and comprehensive analysis of both sensorineural elements and blood vessels within the cochlea, providing new insights into disease development and progression. This research investigates how vascular pathology may also play an important role in hearing loss alongside other well-known contributors like diabetes and noise exposure and underscores the importance of blood vessels in gaining a comprehensive understanding of auditory pathologies👂🩺. A big thanks to Serhii Kostrikov for visiting Eriksholm Research Centre, and for adding fresh perspectives to our multifaceted discussions of hearing loss!
