Harmody is a medical device in the form of a digital application for the relief of acute discomfort caused by tonal tinnitus.
The product is intended for an acute relief of strain caused by tinnitus aurium (ICD-10 H93.1) and addresses such patients as users that are affected by tonal tinnitus. The product is implemented as software for mobile devices. Users can use it to recreate the musical pitch of their tinnitus via subjective sound comparison. Music of their choice, which patients play back with the app, is automatically analysed with regard to the frequency spectrum and played back in pitch in such a way that the individual tinnitus tone is accompanied by the music in the most harmonically appropriate way possible, so that the tinnitus tone is masked and defocused and thus temporarily alleviated in intensity.

Mobile device with Internet access and one of the following operating systems:

• Android, version 6.0 or higher
• iOS, version 12.0 or higher

The product is intended for the acute relief of distress caused by tinnitus aurium (ICD-10 H93.1). The application is intended to achieve a temporary reduction in the intensity of tinnitus that is subjectively perceived by the patient. The product is a stand-alone software. It receives user input and outputs information that is displayed or played back by the operating system and device.
The patient can use the product to recreate the musical pitch of their tinnitus via subjective tone comparison, which is necessary at least once but may be repeated or corrected at any time.
It can be obtained as an app via stores in order to install it on smartphones or tablets and receive updates via the stores. The user performs the installation and uninstallation independently.

Harmody provides acute temporary relief of perceived tinnitus. A healing effect by frequent use is not proven.

The product is intended for independent application by affected patients as users. The product addresses such patients as users who are affected by tonal tinnitus. The application basically requires that users are physically and mentally able to operate smartphone devices and apps and thus also to read text content. The product is intended for users who can listen to music acoustically via their device or paired accessories. The product assumes sufficient hearing ability to listen to music through at least one ear.

Adults, 18 years and older.

For optimal effectiveness, the manufacturer recommends use under headphones, in an environment with low noise levels, e.g. in living or rest rooms. Headphones with active noise reduction can be used beneficially. A relaxing environment without distractions is recommended. The patient is not told how often or for how long to listen to music that is tailored for him or her.

Harmody can be used at any time in case of acute need.

The application is restrictively intended only for the relief of tinnitus characterized as tonal. Efficacy is not warranted for tinnitus that is not described by the patient as a clearly distinct perceptible sound, but instead for example as broadband noise or rhythmic noise. The product has not been designed, developed or tested for patients affected by deafness or for cochlear implant users. There are no contraindications.
The product is intended only for temporary relief of ringing in the ears as a symptom. It does not represent a curative therapy and is not intended to replace one. However, an accompanying use of the product for tinnitus therapy is possible. The product is not intended to make or influence therapeutic decisions.

When using the tone matching feature for the first time, the tinnitus may be temporarily perceived more strongly due to the concentration on the tinnitus. It is therefore recommended to restart the tone matching only after a sufficient break.

There are no known interactions with medications or other digital health applications.

Harmody is an audio player for music in any flavour. The integrated harmonization effect makes it easier to compensate for tinnitus in everyday life. While listening to music, the tinnitus noise becomes blurred and is lost in the euphony – even at a moderate volume.
Using the app, the individual tinnitus frequency is first narrowed down and determined using a reference tone with the tone matching function. Our patented algorithm analyses the musical nature of the desired piece of music, automatically adjusts its pitch and thus optimally harmonizes the music with the tinnitus tone. After that, any favourite music can be played. The sound quality and harmony of the music are preserved. For long-term monitoring of tinnitus exposure or relief, personal progress can be recorded in a diary.

Harmody is not suitable for use in emergencies. In case of emergencies (e.g. deterioration of your health condition) contact your attending physician or psychotherapist immediately or dial the emergency numbers of ambulance service or police applicable for your country.

Germany:
• Emergency call: 112
• Police: 110
• Pastoral care: 0800 111 0 111, 0800 111 0222, 116 123

If you do not reach anyone at the phone numbers provided or do not receive assistance, please check to see if the phone numbers may have changed.

In the event of an unexpected serious incident related to the product, this should be reported to the manufacturer and, if appropriate, to the competent authority of the Member State in which the user and/or patient is established.

Harmody is a medical device of risk class I according to European Medical Device Regulation (MDR).
