Abstract:
Sleep disorders is one of the most frequent and severe complications in patients with tinnitus and is highly correlated with the severity of tinnitus.Sleep disorders and tinnitus influence each other,forming a vicious circle.While in-terventions have been developed to alleviate tinnitus distress,these interventions are usually not effective in improving sleep in patients with tinnitus and sleep disorders.Helping tinnitus patients to resolve sleep disorders is the key to breaking the cycle and improving their quality of life.In this narrative review,we studyed the current state of research on sleep disorders in patients with tinnitus through three aspects:epidemiology,physiological and psychological mechanisms,and existing psychological,physical,and pharmacological interventions,and to provide a basis for further research on the relationship between tinnitus and sleep disorders and the precise treatment of tinnitus.
