Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for acute acoustic trauma.

M Pilgramm, K Schumann

    Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology
    |January 1, 1985

    Summary

    Hyperbaric oxygen therapy significantly improves healing for soldiers with acute acoustic trauma, effectively reducing tinnitus and hearing loss. This treatment offers better outcomes than standard infusions or vasoactive substances.

    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Hyperbaric Medicine
    • Military Health

    Background:

    • Acute acoustic trauma is a common injury in soldiers.
    • Hearing dysfunction and tinnitus are significant sequelae.
    • Standard treatments have limited efficacy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in treating acute acoustic trauma in soldiers.
    • To compare HBOT with other treatment modalities.

    Main Methods:

    • A randomized controlled trial involving 122 soldiers with acute acoustic trauma.
    • Four treatment groups were established, including HBOT, infusions, and vasoactive substances (betahistine).
    • Outcomes were assessed after a 6-week observation period, focusing on hearing perception and tinnitus.

    Main Results:

    • HBOT significantly shortened the healing period for high-pitch perception dysacusis.
    • Patients receiving HBOT showed more favorable outcomes compared to those receiving infusions or betahistine.
    • HBOT reduced the frequency of relapse after hospital discharge.
    • HBOT was superior in eliminating tinnitus post-acoustic trauma.

    Conclusions:

    • Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a highly effective treatment for acute acoustic trauma in soldiers.
    • HBOT offers significant advantages over conventional treatments for hearing recovery and tinnitus reduction.
    • The findings support the use of HBOT as a primary therapeutic option for this condition.
