Summary

What Researchers Did

Researchers evaluated auditory and vestibular function in human subjects exposed to 100% oxygen at 3 atmospheres absolute pressure for 2 to 3.5 hours.

What They Found

The study found no alterations in hearing or equilibrium among subjects exposed to 100% oxygen at 3 atmospheres absolute pressure for 2 to 3.5 hours. This suggests that ototoxicity is not a limiting factor under these specific hyperbaric oxygen conditions.

Canadian Relevance

This study has no direct Canadian connection.

Study Limitations

The study's findings are specific to the tested hyperbaric oxygen conditions and may not generalize to different pressures, durations, or patient populations.
