Abstract

Tinnitus, acute or chronic, is one of the most common and refractory disorders. Acute tinnitus is a symptom that is a warning sign when compared with chronic tinnitus. Although hearing loss initiates acute tinnitus, the relationship between hearing loss and tinnitus is far from straightforward. Other factors beyond the auditory system may play important roles in the occurrence of acute tinnitus. To address this issue, we propose an integrated regulation theory of the possible physical causes of acute tinnitus, and summarize a classification system for acute tinnitus based on this regulation theory to help guide clinical treatment.
