Inner ear barotrauma: a retrospective clinical series of 50 cases
(Edmonds C. Inner ear barotrauma: a retrospective clinical series of 50 cases. SPUMS J. 2004; 34: 11-4.) A retrospective series of 50 cases of inner ear barotrauma is reviewed, as regards the diving and otological history, the clinical manifestations, basic audiometric investigations and treatments. This disorder may be predicted to some degree by a previous history of otological barotraumas, o...
متن کاملDiving and the risk of barotrauma.
STUDY OBJECTIVES Pulmonary barotrauma (PBT) of ascent is a feared complication in compressed air diving. Although certain respiratory conditions are thought to increase the risk of suffering PBT and thus should preclude diving, in most cases of PBT, risk factors are described as not being present. The purpose of our study was to evaluate factors that possibly cause PBT. DESIGN We analyzed 15 ...
متن کاملInner ear dysfunction due to vertebrobasilar ischemic stroke.
Because the blood supply to the inner ear originates from the vertebrobasilar system, vertebrobasilar ischemic stroke can present with vertigo and hearing loss due to infarction of the inner ear (i.e., labyrinthine infarction). Sometimes vertigo and hearing loss are warning symptoms of impending vertebrobasilar ischemic stroke (mainly in the anterior inferior cerebellar artery territory). In th...

متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging in a guinea pig model of inner ear decompression sickness and barotrauma.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Scuba diving may cause severe hearing loss and vertigo due to inner ear barotrauma and decompression sickness. These may be difficult to differentiate clinically. Decompression sickness requires costly and potentially dangerous hyperbaric therapy, whereas such treatment may worsen barotrauma. The objective of this study was to assess the potential utility of magnetic reson...
