For sudden hearing loss, typically 10 to 20 sessions of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) are recommended, depending on individual needs and medical advice. This non-invasive treatment aims to enhance the recovery of hearing by increasing oxygen supply to the inner ear, often showing effectiveness when started promptly.
Understanding Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Sudden Hearing Loss
Why Choose Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has gained attention for its potential benefits in treating sudden sensorineural hearing loss. Here’s why it is considered:
- HBOT delivers 100% oxygen at higher pressure, improving oxygenation in the blood and reaching areas with compromised blood flow such as the inner ear.
- Initiating treatment within two weeks of hearing loss onset significantly enhances effectiveness, improving chances of recovery.
- Unlike surgical interventions, HBOT is a non-invasive therapy with a relatively low risk of side effects, making it a viable early intervention option.
Factors Influencing the Number of Sessions
Several factors can affect how many sessions are needed:
- More severe cases may require additional sessions for optimal results.
- Individual response to therapy varies; some may experience improvement after fewer sessions.
- HBOT is often used alongside steroids or other medications, influencing the overall treatment plan.
