Tinnitus, the phantom sound: A review of history and guidelines for care
Abstract:
The experience of tinnitus can range from inducing annoyance to debility. In the US, tinnitus is estimated to affect 1 in 10 adults, though it is known to be underreported.

Understanding the symptomatology and treatment guidelines is essential for the NP to care holistically for these patients and improve their quality of life.
