Abstrakt		The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a workshop we organised for our tinnitus patients. The workshop is led by an audiologist and a psychologist and takes place once a month. Answers to the tinnitus handicap inventory were evaluated before and after each workshop. The workshop was regularly attended by 10 patients. The authors evaluated the difference in answers concerning the degree of handicap during daily activities. Seven patients reported evident improvement after 12 sessions. It appears that tinnitus workshops contribute to the treatment of the most handicapped tinnitus patients.
Izvleček		Ocenjevali smo učinkovitost skupinske delavnice za bolnike s tinitusom, ki jo vodita avdiologinja in psihologinja. Vrednotili smo odgovore na vprašalnik o prizadetosti, ki jo ima bolnik zaradi tinitusa, pred in po udeležbi v skupini. Po 12 mesecih je deset bolnikov, ki so se redno udeleževali delavnic, ponovno izpolnilo vprašalnik. Pri sedmih bolnikih smo ugotovili pomembno razliko v stopnji prizadetosti. Zaključujemo, da skupinska delavnica za bolnike s tinitusom ponuja pomoč bolnikom z izrazitimi težavami pri vsakdanjih aktivnostih.
