Remission & chronicity

Spontaneous remission
Spontaneous resolution in 50-60% of acute tinnitus (<3 months) without treatment; chronic tinnitus (>3 months): only 10-15% spontaneous resolution; habituated tinnitus (not distressing) in 75% at 5 years but sound remains in most
Best-intervention remission
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT): 50-60% reduction in tinnitus-related distress (not sound elimination); tinnitus retraining therapy (TRT): 80% improvement in distress over 18 months; hearing aids for comorbid hearing loss: modest tinnitus reduction; sound therapy (masking): symptom relief without cure
Drug-free remission
Relapse after remission
Chronicity
Gap size
Very large — no pharmacological treatment exists; CBT and TRT are evidence-based but massively under-accessed
Primary barrier
biological + access
Barrier detail: No effective pharmacotherapy exists (multiple drug classes tried and failed); sound therapy and CBT are the only evidence-based interventions but trained tinnitus therapists are scarce; most patients are told to 'live with it'; digital CBT for tinnitus (iCBT) emerging as scalable solution

Last SoC change: 2023 — Lenire (bimodal neurostimulation device) cleared in some markets; 2022 FDA De Novo cleared for SAINT protocol-based devices; no pharmacotherapy approved; CBT/TRT standard since 1990s
