Abstract | ||||
Background: The internal perception of sound in the absence of external auditory stimulation is what is meant to describe the condition known as tinnitus. Tinnitus is one of three otoneurological manifestations, along with sensorineural hearing loss and dizziness, which are frequently the primary individuals complaint. Tinnitus is the most common of these three symptoms. Aim and objectives: Determination of relationship between vestibular function and tinnitus in normal hearing subjects Patients and Methods: Thirty subjects were included in this study who complained of tinnitus without hearing loss Divided into 2 groups, group 1: 40 tinnitus ear, and group 2:20 non tinnitus ear Results: In terms of pure tone threshold, assessment SRT, WDS%, acoustic reflexes parameters, cVEMPs latencies, and peak amblitude, there was no statistically noteworthy difference among the tinnitus and non-tinnitus groups. There was not a statistically significant variation between the amplitude ratio of caloric response and either the male or female participants' sexe. There was also no statistically significant link found among the duration of tinnitus and vestibular function (P13 and N23 latency). Conclusion: From the results of our study, we can concluded that a Tinnitus was found to have a link with an aberrant caloric response, which was determined. | ||||
