- Title
Use of bedside sound generators by patients with tinnitus-related sleeping difficulty: which sounds are preferred and why?
- Authors

- Abstract
Most tinnitus patients who have difficulty sleeping experience some improvement in sleep after short-term use of bedside sound generators (BSSGs), although this study does not allow conclusions to be drawn as to how much other factors contribute. Many patients seem to find BSSGs helpful in reducing autonomic arousal. Further research is needed, but these findings raise the possibility that the emotional effects of sound enrichment have an important role to play in improving sleep among tinnitus patients.
