Sound exposure for hyperacusis treatment
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This trial tests whether gradual exposure to everyday sounds helps people with hyperacusis, a condition where normal sounds feel too loud or painful. It aims to find better ways to reduce sound sensitivity.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You find normal sounds uncomfortably loud or painful.
- This sound sensitivity is your main hearing problem.
- You do not have a primary issue with specific trigger sounds (misophonia) or ringing in the ears (tinnitus).
- You are not currently receiving other treatment for your sound sensitivity.

This trial tests a therapy designed to help autistic adults who are very sensitive to everyday sounds. The treatment aims to make loud sounds more comfortable and improve daily life.
This study explores how common sound sensitivity issues are among teachers. Researchers want to understand if certain sounds bother teachers more than others, and whether this affects their work or well-being.
This trial looks at how using platforms that change sound, like online meeting tools, might affect your hearing. It compares people who use these tools a lot with those who use them less.
This trial tests using hearing aids with built-in tinnitus maskers to see if they help adults who have both hearing loss and ringing in the ears. It aims to find out if these devices improve hearing and reduce tinnitus symptoms.
This study looks at how the brain processes sounds in people with misophonia, a condition where certain noises cause strong emotional reactions. Participation involves listening to sounds and may help researchers better understand this sensitivity.
This trial tests whether a sound-based training program (called Siopi) can reduce tinnitus. It uses brain wave recordings to see how the training changes brain activity.
