- Question
What is the most clinically and cost-effective tinnitus questionnaire to assess tinnitus in children and young people?
- Any explanatory notes
(if applicable) Children and young people commonly experience tinnitus, but this symptom is often unreported and the evidence base to support the assessment and management of tinnitus in children is lacking. The evaluation of a paediatric tinnitus assessment instrument is of vital importance to allow an appropriate appraisal of tinnitus burden, to allow triage, and to monitor change (i.e. outcomes of management strategies). The committee were unaware of existing questionnaires and so new research should develop and test questionnaires for children and young people with tinnitus
