Join us as we explore the science behind Levo Medical’s FDA-cleared patented technology for tinnitus therapy that leverages the brain’s natural ability to diminish the effects of tinnitus over time through neural habituation and how a recent thesis by Ms. Purvi Patel on “Evaluating the Prognosis Value of Intensity Variability in Tinnitus Treatment with Acoustic Stimulation During Sleep” (supervised by Dr. Alberto Capurro from Queens Mary University of London and Dr. Daniel Drexler, Medical Director at Centro Tinnitus Montevideo) validates the long standing theory of variability during the adaptation phase as a prognosis value on the outcomes of the therapy.

Learning Objectives:

Understand the importance of using acoustic stimulation for the treatment of tinnitus and understand the differences between customized and non-customized acoustic stimulation
Understand the scientific bases and the advantages of applying acoustic stimulation for the treatment of tinnitus with a sound that reproduces the spectral and loudness characteristics of the patient's tinnitus
Understand the scientific bases and the advantages of applying acoustic stimulation during sleep
