Assessing the Effectiveness of Different Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment Methods in Patients with Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss.

Introduction: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is one of the treatment methods in patients with sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL). It is recommended as an elective treatment in patients undergoing steroid therapy. According to current scientific reports, HBOT should be implemented within two weeks after the first symptoms.

The management of sudden sensorineural hearing loss during COVID-19 pandemic.

<b>Introduction:</b> The COVID-19 pandemic constituted a significant challenge for healthcare systems. Epidemiological restrictions led to deferral of healthcare and influenced the variety of symptoms reported by patients suffering from Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss.</br></br> <b>Aim:</b> The aim of the study was to compare the duration of treatment implementation and symptoms reported by patients suffering from SSNHL before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Influence of Steroid Therapy on the Treatment Results in Patients with Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss.

Oral, intravenous, or intratympanic steroid therapy (ST) are commonly applied methods of pharmacotherapy in Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss (SSNHL). There are vast discrepancies on the recommended initial dose and the duration of ST in medical reports. The aim of the research is a retrospective comparison of patients’ examination results with different therapeutical strategies.

[Evaluation of hyperbaric oxygen and pharmacological therapy in sudden hearing loss].

Unlabelled: Treatment of idiopathic sudden hearing loss (SHL) is still a big problem for the otolaryngologists, due to the still unexplained etiopathogenesis of the illness. The aim of this study was to evaluate effectiveness of pharmacotherapy combined with the hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) in idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss treatment. Patients who received HBO and medical treatment in the Department of Otolaryngology of Military Institute of Health Service and Warsaw Center for Hyperbaric Therapy and Wounds Treatment were studied.

[Assessment of betahistine dihydrochloride effectiveness in the treatment of disturbance of balance system, based on analysis of doctors and patients questionnaires results].

[Hemorrhage from stomach ulceration in chronically hemodialysed patient after planned tonsillectomy].

We present a chronically hemodialysed patient who developed an acute throat hemorrhage after standard tonsillectomy, planned as a standard surgery for purulent tonsillitis being contraindication to kidney transplantation in this case. Hemorrhage diagnosed firstly as a local post tonsillectomy complication proved to be caused by in the acute stomach ulcer. In the discussion we present the differentiate diagnosis as well as procedures which should be undertaken in hemodialysed patients who develop acute hemorrhage episodes from upper respiratory tract after tonsillectomy.

[Application of the fusafungine in perioperative period in patients after tonsillectomy].

The only treatment method in chronic palatine tonsillitis is the removal of tonsils (tonsillectomy). The study aimed at a clinical evaluation of postoperative fusafungine use in patients who underwent tonsillectomy. The study included 200 patients who underwent tonsillectomy for chronic palatine pyotonsillitis in the Otolaryngology Clinic of the Military Institute for the Health Services in Warsaw between 2000 and 2002.
