Authors' objectives
To determine the effectiveness of tinnitus retraining therapy (TRT) for the treatment of chronic tinnitus.
Authors' conclusions
Due to the lack of prospective trials with comparison groups, the efficacy of TRT for subjective tinnitus has not been established. Therefore, TRT is considered investigational and controversial.
