Abstract

Objective

To prevent and reduce the incidence of tinnitus and to relieve the suffering of those with existing tinnitus.

Study Design

A study was conducted using a questionnaire.

Setting

Large number of patients come to ENT because tinnitus is seriously affecting their lives, and we found that these patients have some common factors that influence the development of this condition.

Method

This study was reviewed by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Grant No. 2022KL-075. The investigation was conducted on patients with tinnitus as the main complaint who visited the Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from September 2020 to September 2023, to obtain basic information, tinnitus related information, Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) of the patients. And conduct correlation analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis on the severity with age, sex, PSQI, SAS of tinnitus patients.

Result

A total of 1739 patients participated in the survey, with the majority being females, with an average age of 46.21 ± 16.08 years old. Majority of patients had tinnitus in both ears. The severity is related to sex, anxiety, and sleep of tinnitus patients (p = 0.000). Age (OR = 0.978, 95% CI: 0.971~0.985), sleep quality (OR = 1.229, 95% CI: 1.179~1.279), and anxiety (OR = 1.065, 95% CI: 1.040~1.090) are factors that affect the severity of tinnitus patients.
