If you go for an electronic solution, I'd consider the new Sony WF-1000XM3 noise canceling earbuds, they have configuration options for environmental sound and a fast temporary disable mode. The issue I see with devices for shooting is that they are designed to let everything through except loud impulses, which is a different objective entirely.
I've had tinnitus since my 20's, along with my two brothers and my grandfather at least. Right around 10k, both ears, mostly steady. It's just how it is. My hearing otherwise is quite good, but I haven't had a test in a while.
My oldest brother is actually an ENT, and he hasn't had or recommended any of the current treatments. The percentage of people that end up with a worse outcome is higher than I would want to underwrite for myself. I am able to ignore it for the most part...the brain is incredibly adaptive...
To the OP: Have you considered a shared headset system with maybe a foot operated mic switch? Patient listens to tunes...You PTT through the intercom?
Either way, cheers for trying to do what you can. Best of luck!
