Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in Stroke-Related Sudden Hearing Loss: A Case Report
Listen to this summary
This case report investigates the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in improving hearing levels in a 74-year-old male patient who experienced sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) following a stroke. Despite initial treatments with steroids showing no significant improvement, the patient demonstrated notable recovery in hearing function after undergoing 14 sessions of HBOT. The findings suggest that HBOT may be a beneficial therapeutic option for SSNHL in stroke patients.
