Overview

What is Progressive Tinnitus Management (PTM)? It is a method for managing tinnitus that resulted from Dr. James Henry's 35-year research career. His work developed tools and techniques to improve clinical services needed by people whose lives are impacted by tinnitus. It is a stepped-care method, meaning clinical services are provided only to the degree necessary for individuals ranging from ""not at all bothered"" to ""extremely bothered"" by tinnitus. Five levels of care are possible. Levels 1 and 2 are for anyone who experiences tinnitus. Level 3 provides self-care counseling. Levels 4 and 5 are available for those who require further care. In this book, you will learn how: a person with tinnitus receives appropriate clinical services. audiologists evaluate patients who have tinnitus. clinicians teach self-care strategies to manage the effects of bothersome tinnitus. clinicians conduct comprehensive evaluations to determine why tinnitus continues to be bothersome for some people. PTM self-care strategies can be expanded upon with further options for treatment. This book is intended for both healthcare professionals and the lay public. It is written with the rigor that is required for peer-reviewed scientific journals, and includes 229 references that support the text. To make the book understandable to all, technical and medical terms are minimized, and they are explained when used.
