摘要

Background

Somatosensory tinnitus is associated with functional disorders of the cervical spine and/or temporomandibular joint region. Manual medicine can be helpful here. However, the diagnostic criteria for somatosensory tinnitus can only partly be derived from the specific anamnesis; in some cases, clinical manual examination techniques are also necessary. The aim of this work was to design a pragmatic screening instrument for somatosensory tinnitus that can be carried out in the ENT practice with a seated patient.

Materials and methods

In a modified Delphi procedure, a group of manual medicine specialists and otorhinolaryngologists identified suitable manual medicine procedures and evaluated them for their feasibility in the ENT practice.

Results

The SOMASENSO check is a pragmatic examination tool that makes it easier for otorhinolaryngologists to identify potential somatosensory tinnitus patients.

Conclusion

The technical difficulty and lack of test–retest reliability of many manual segmental function tests has led to a focus on the detection of movement disorders, pain, and tinnitus modulation.
