Guidelines for tinnitus sound generator users
The following instructions contain information about Tinnitus
SoundSupport, which may have been enabled in your hearing aids by
your hearing care professional.
Tinnitus SoundSupport is a tinnitus management device intended to
generate sound of sufficient intensity and bandwidth to help manage
tinnitus.
Your hearing care professional will also be able to offer the appropriate
follow-up care. It is important to follow his/her advice and directions
regarding such care.
Prescription use only
Good health practice requires that the person reporting tinnitus has
a medical evaluation by a licensed ear physician before using a sound
generator. The purpose of such an evaluation is to ensure that any
medically-treatable condition that may cause tinnitus is identified and
treated prior to using a sound generator.
