The AudioNotch Tinnitus Treatment Blog

What are the tinnitus treatment options that are promising right now? It’s difficult to assess research findings before extensive clinical trials have come out, but I can point towards some areas of research in tinnitus treatment that are promising in 2014: I’ve blogged about them before:

• New U of M Study Offers Promise in Developing Therapy for Tinnitus
• More on the Michigan Research
• Promising Early Results for Vagal Nerve Therapy for Tinnitus

In 2014, these are the tinnitus treatment options to look out for. As with any type of clinical research, progress takes years. It’s actually incredibly difficult to translate basic science research into actual clinically approved treatments. The process of translational research is often referred to as a “valley of death” because so many efforts fail. That said, I want people with tinnitus to have hope: in 2014, tinnitus treatment research continues, and real clinical treatments are in the developmental pipeline.
