    New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

    Hey there - I would absolutely hate to give you my one, isolated, anecdotal (because no one has the data available) perception of this study and the device's effect on my tinnitus. I'd also hate to say anything to compromise the study. What I will say is this: I personally believe, based...

    New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

    I know they were just about done recruiting, which means they were close to their target population at least starting if not fully completed. This is good news because even if a portion dropped off, they likely have a lot of data. Specific numbers, I’m not sure, but I do think they’ll have...

    New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

    Hi. The trial is impacted by COVID19, but it is not clear if that will delay the timeline. It may limit how large the population is in the trial, and what aspects of the data they can use, or at least apply to the whole population of participants. Right now, they cannot have participants come...

    New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

    I agree, it certainly could! The trial won't render an opinion on this due to the disqualification - it won't have data on this particular subtype. However, that's not to say it won't work and provide some benefit! I hope it casts a wide net as a solution.

    Unfortunately, pulsatile tinnitus is a disqualification for participating in the trial.

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    Hi Glenn - I’m not sure how many participants are in the trial, or how many they are targeting. I agree, the bigger the better for sure.

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    What I meant by ‘moving forward’ is that I always got a sense of urgency that the team is pushing to complete the trial as quickly as possible. They want this data, but they really want a solid, reputable experiment. I think they’ll get both.

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    Thanks for sending! Admittedly I’ve read nearly all of it as I was lurking around. It actually encouraged me to perform some independent research about the trial and Dr. Shore, leading me to apply to the current study. So thank you, Tinnitus Talk community, for the super useful content.

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    At initial onset of tinnitus, I experienced hyperacusis to a moderate degree. Over the first two months it largely subsided. I still have fleeting aspects of it where conversation is just too loud and screechy for me. I do not consider hyperacusis a major / primary issue for me.

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    I definitely want to, but giving this forum one anecdotal data point based on my experience would be unfair to you all and to the research. I don't know how my experience compares to any others in the trial, and it would suck to comment and give everyone a singular nugget of insight that may be...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    Believe me, I want to, because as someone who has this junky tinnitus condition, I know how much I thirsted for info, signs of progress, etc. That said, I don't want to screw over the trial or say anything that would compromise their scientific approach, or influence perception by the...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    You can feel the electrical stimulation in both devices, however it is so light of a sensation, by design, that you’d never be able to tell if the signal timing was drastically different in each device, rendering one a placebo and one a treatment, but which is which, is left undetectable to the...
