结局指标
主要结局
Absolute Change in TBF-12 (Tinnitus Handicap Inventory-12) Total Score from Baseline.
时间窗: Baseline to week 17 and 29
The TBF-12 is an adapted German version of the original English THI (Tinnitus Handicap Inventory). It is a self-report questionnaire assessing 12 items from 2 dimensions: emotional-cognitive factors and functional-communicational factors. Each item is rated with 0-2 (2= "often"; 1= "sometimes"; 0= "never"). The maximum score is 24 indicating most severe tinnitus impairment. Hierarchical test procedure: Step 1: week 29 in subjects reporting acute hearing loss; step 2: week 17, ditto; step 3: week 29 in total population; step 4: week 17, ditto.
Absolute Change in TSSw (Tinnitus Severity Scale - One Week Version) Total Score from Baseline.
时间窗: Baseline to week 17 and 29
The TSSw is a measure of tinnitus severity. It will be self-evaluated by the patient at various time points on an 11-point Likert-like scale asking for the past week. The scores range from 0 (indicating no tinnitus) to the maximum score of 10 (characterizing the most severe tinnitus considered). Hierarchical test procedure: Step 1: week 29 in subjects reporting acute hearing loss; step 2: week 17, ditto; step 3: week 29 in total population; step 4: week 17, ditto.
