¸ñÀû: To analyze the clinical features of sensorineural tinnitus patients who had a complete cure after tinnitus retraining therapy (TRT) and to identify significant factors that affect early recovery. ¹æ¹ý:A retrospective review of 710 patients diagnosed with sensorineural tinnitus who received TRT and achieved a complete cure from 2017 to 2022 at a tertiary university hospital was conducted. Review of records extracted important clinical features including patient demographics, Jastebroffs tinnitus category, tinnitus duration before consult, hearing evaluation, visual analogue scores (VAS), and tinnitus handicap inventory (THI) All patients underwent TRT at 3-, 6-, and 12-month intervals following initial consultation and diagnosis. Patients were followed-up until cured, which is defined as tinnitus heard less than five minutes a day and a substantial decrease in tinnitus questionnaires. °á°ú:Patients had a mean age of 5416.3 years (range: 12-92 years). There were more females than males (n=468, 65.9% females, n=242 34.1% males). Most of the patients had unilateral tinnitus (72.4%). Jastebroffs category 2 (n=288, 40.6%) and category 1 (n=229, 32.3%) comprised most of the study population. The mean cure time was 23.927.2 months (range: 1-216). Early recovery (3 months cure time) was associated with the clinical factors of age (p=0.034) and initial VAS loudness score (p=0.048), showing shorter cure time for younger patients and lower initial VAS loudness score. °á·Ð:TRT is effective for patients to achieve a cure at a mean of 23.926.8 months. The clinical factors of having a younger age and a lower VAS loudness score were associated with a complete cure within 3 months of TRT.
