摘要：
A method of treating tinnitus comprising measuring a patients hearing, determining the patients hearing loss and the patients tinnitus frequency using the measurements of the patients hearing, programming a clinical controller with the measurements of the patients hearing, selecting a plurality of therapeutic tones, where the therapeutic tones are selected to be at least a half-octave above or below of the patients tinnitus frequency, setting an appropriate volume for each of the plurality of tones, repetitively playing each of the plurality of therapeutic tones, and pairing a vagus nerve stimulation pulse train with each playing of a therapeutic tone, thereby reducing the patients perception of tinnitus.
