In the 39 tinnitus patients, their tinnitus was reduced. We found negative correlations between HRQoL and stress, depression, and anxiety. Pre\u2010CI, tinnitus severity did not correlate with HRQoL and psychological comorbidity. However, patients with a high\u2010level tinnitus had lower HRQoL as well as a higher level of perceived stress and anxiety symptoms than patients with a low\u2010level tinnitus and no\/incidental tinnitus before CI. Moreover, patients with severe hearing loss had a higher level of perceived symptoms of stress and depression than patients with profound hearing loss before CI.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title><jats:p>The present study provides evidence that tinnitus and psychological comorbidity may play an important role in the rehabilitation of CI patients, and that there is a correlation between HRQoL and these parameters. In addition to hearing tests, tinnitus, stress, and psychological comorbidity should be assessed using validated questionnaires before and after CI. This will help to improve the rehabilitation process.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.22145","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,9,6]],"date-time":"2011-09-06T18:45:32Z","timestamp":1315334732000},"page":"2220-2227","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":131,"title":["Cochlear implantation has a positive influence on quality of life, tinnitus, and psychological comorbidity"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"121","author":[{"given":"Heidi","family":"Olze","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Agnieszka J.","family":"Szczepek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Heidemarie","family":"Haupt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ulrike","family":"F\u00f6rster","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nina","family":"Zirke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stefan","family":"Gr\u00e4bel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Birgit","family":"Mazurek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,9,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00003446-199806000-00003"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","first-page":"105","article-title":"Preoperative predictors of outcomes from cochlear implantation in adults: performance and quality of life","volume":"166","author":"Summerfield AQ","year":"1995","journal-title":"Ann Otol Rhinol Laryngol Suppl"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00003446-200504000-00006"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/14992020500266852"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/14992020209056073"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0030-6665(02)00165-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000231632"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3766\/jaaa.20.5.5"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00206090109073108"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0079-6123(07)66033-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/14992020400050033"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mhn.2000.108203"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_2","volume-title":"Tinnitus\u2010Fragebogen (TF)\u2010Ein Instrument zur Erfassung von Belastung und Schweregrad bei Tinnitus, Handanweisung","author":"Goebel G","year":"1998"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jpsychores.2007.02.010"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1207\/s15327558ijbm0401_6"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_17_2","unstructured":"KnollN.Coping as a personality process: how elderly patients deal with cataract surgery;2002.
