Objective To investigate the clinical effect of music therapy combined with psychotherapy on patients with chronic subjective tinnitus.Methods A total of 102 patients with chronic subjective tinnitus were randomly divided into group A and group B,with 51 cases in each group.Group A was treated with music therapy,and group B was treated with music therapy and psychotherapy.The therapeutic effect,value of tinnitus loudness,tinnitus handicap inventory(THI),visual analogue scale(VAS),self-rating depression scale(SDS),self-rating anxiety scale(SAS)and sleep dysfunction rating scale(SDRS)before and after treatment were compared between the two groups.Results After 3 months of treatment,the value of tinnitus loudness,THI and VAS scores in both groups were lower than those before treatment;group B had value of tinnitus loudness of(36.69±10.47)dB HL and THI score of(37.14±11.55)points and VAS score of(3.67±1.49)points,which were lower than(41.75±13.73)dB HL,(43.80±13.94)points and(4.29±1.55)points in group A;the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).After 3 months of treatment,the scores of SAS,SDS and SDRS in both groups were lower than those before treatment;group B had SAS score of(32.55±7.44)points and SDRS score of(9.24±2.77)points,which were lower than(36.16±8.38)and(10.53±3.11)points in group A;the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).After 3 months of treatment,there was no difference in SDS scores between the two groups(P>0.05).The total effective rate of group B was 80.4%,which was higher than 66.7%of group A,but there was no significant difference(P>0.05).Conclusion The effect of music therapy combined with psychotherapy on chronic subjective tinnitus patients is outstanding,which can effectively improve the tinnitus and anxiety,depression,insomnia of patients,and is worthy of clinical promotion.
