Description
Tinnitus is a common complaint in the general population, 10 to 15% of adults will experience this in life and 69% of these people also suffer from neck pain. Tinnitus also occurs in approximately 60% of patients with TMD-related complaints. In certain cases (about 25%), neck pain complaints as well as jaw pain complaints of these patients are also associated with tinnitus in a syndromic manner and are even considered a causal or influencing factor for tinnitus. From this idea arises the hypothesis that the tinnitus can be influenced by interventions with a musculoskeletal focus on the temporomandibular system and / or the cervical spine.
The aim of this e-learning is to make the complex problems of tinnitus in general and neck / jaw-related tinnitus in particular diagnostically recognizable. On the basis of recent evidence about somatic and non-somatic tinnitus, the student gets a picture of the possibilities with regard to diagnostics and the treatment options for patients with tinnitus within physiotherapy practice.
This e-learning consists of:
- Three webcasts on ‘Tinnitus’ (total time: 46 minutes), namely:
- Part 1: What is tinnitus? (17 minutes)
- Part 2: Diagnostics of somatic tinnitus (7 minutes)
- Part 3: Treatment of somatic tinnitus (22 minutes)
9 test questions (3 questions per webcast).
After this e-learning, the participant is able to:
- classify the different forms of tinnitus and distinguish them from each other.
- recognize the picture of a clear somatic (neck / jaw-related) tinnitus in clients with tinnitus by means of a structured interview.
- make adequate choices with regard to diagnosis and treatment options for patients with somatic tinnitus based on recent evidence about somatic tinnitus.
