Adjunctive Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy or Intratympanic Steroids in Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss?

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Sudden sensorineural hearing loss is traditionally treated with steroids, either orally and/or via intratympanic injections, and hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) has resurged in popularity as an adjunctive therapy. The study has not found any additional treatment benefit with adjunctive concurrent HBOT; however, HBOT might be of value to patients ...

Cytokine changes in nasal secretions after acute acoustic trauma [PDF]

Journal of Medical Biochemistry
Background: Occupational noise-induced hearing loss poses a significant health risk, especially for military and law enforcement. Unlike steady, prolonged noise, impulse noise, such as gunfire, leads to more immediate and severe hearing impairment.

Robotic‐Assisted Electrode Array Insertion Improves Stability of Acoustic Hearing Thresholds

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study evaluated the impact of robotic‐assisted electrode array insertion on rates of delayed‐onset hearing loss (DOHL). DOHL occurred in 22 of 60 subjects (37%) in the manual cohort compared with 2 of 29 subjects (7%) in the robotic‐assisted cohort, representing a statistically significant reduction (p = 0.002).
