Sudden Hearing Loss

Sudden hearing loss just happens.  Current understanding is poor.  The hearing loss is real and it can be tested.  One of the ways to treat is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy or HBOT in short.  So the patient will go into a pressure chamber and pressure will increase to 2 atmospheres.  Breathing will be through a mask that delivers 100% oxygen.  This will give 100% SpO2 and also dissolved oxygen in plasma.  The increased oxygen level will oxygenate the inner ear reviving it.  I hope this therapy work!
