    Tinnitus Management Tinnitus Sound Generator module Your ReSound hearing aid includes the Tinnitus Sound Generator (TSG) module, a tool for generating sounds to be used in tinnitus management programs to temporarily relieve suffering from tinnitus. The TSG can generate sounds adjusted to the specific therapeutic needs and your personal preference as determined by your doctor, audiologist, or hearing care professional.
  • Page 38 Explanation of how the device functions The TSG module is a frequency and amplitude shaped white-noise generator. The noise signal level and frequency characteristics can be adjusted to the specific therapeutic needs as determined by your doctor, audiologist, or hearing care professional. Your doctor, audiologist, or hearing care professional can modulate the generated noise in order to make it more pleasant.
  • Page 39 The scientific concepts that form the basis for the device The TSG module provides sound enrichment with the aim of surrounding the tinnitus sound with a neutral sound which is easily ignored. Sound enrichment is an important component of most approaches to tinnitus management, such as tinnitus retraining therapy (TRT).
