Acoustic Trauma and Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment
As stated in the conclusions of the HFM-192 report on hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in military medical setting, acoustic trauma is a frequent consequence of military activity in operation. Acoustic trauma refers to an acute hearing loss following a single sudden and very intense noise exposure. It differs from chronic noise induced hearing (NIHL) loss in that it is usually unilateral and ca...
متن کاملHyperbaric Oxygen in Relation to Circulatory and Respiratory Emergencies.
A patient is placed in a pressure chamber and breathes oxygen in order to increase the oxygenation of an organ or tissue which has been rendered anoxic or ischaemic by disease or accident. The theory is simple; successful practical application depends on the appreciation of certain difficulties. Table I shows the "ideal" alveolar oxygen partial pressures which are attainable with oxygen at 1 an...
متن کاملHyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in Acute Acoustic Trauma: A Rapid Systematic Review.
In this rapid systematic review, we studied the clinical question, What is the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on hearing thresholds in patients who suffered a recent acute acoustic trauma? After screening for eligible titles and abstracts and extracting duplicates, 6 original research papers could be found. The general methodology of the studies was weak and the differences between these s...
متن کاملHyperbaric oxygen therapy for acute ischaemic stroke.
Background Most cases of stroke are caused by impairment of blood flow to the brain (ischaemia), which results in a reduction in available oxygen and subsequent cell death. It has been postulated that hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) may reduce the volume of brain that will die by greatly increasing available oxygen, and it may further improve outcomes by reducing brain swelling. Some centres a...
متن کاملHyperbaric oxygen therapy in acute ischemic stroke: results of the Hyperbaric Oxygen in Acute Ischemic Stroke Trial Pilot Study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) has promise as a treatment for acute stroke. This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and feasibility of using HBO in acute ischemic stroke. METHODS We conducted a randomized, prospective, double-blind, sham-controlled pilot study of 33 patients presenting with acute ischemic stroke who did not receive thrombolytics over...
