The Role of Hyperbaric Oxygen as Salvage Therapy for Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss.

CONCLUSION: The present study demonstrated no significant difference in hearing outcomes between patients receiving salvage therapy with HBO2 and IT steroids compared to patients receiving IT steroids alone. Larger, prospective randomized trials are needed to better define the role of HBO2 as salvage therapy for SSNHL. PMID: 30009614 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
