Effectiveness of Telerehabilitation Interventions for Self-Management of Tinnitus: Update of a Systematic Review
Overview
This systematic review update synthesizes research from 2022 to 2025 regarding the effectiveness of telerehabilitation interventions for tinnitus self-management. It evaluates various modalities, including internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy, smartphone apps, and technological devices, noting their potential to reduce tinnitus severity and distress while improving care accessibility. The authors highlight that while these tools show promise, the overall certainty of evidence is low to moderate due to risk of bias in included studies and unaddressed confounding factors like hearing loss or anxiety.
