Effects of Hyperbaric Oxygen Combined with Tympanic Chamber Infu-sion of Dexamethasone on Disease Severity and Sleep Quality in Patients with Chronic Idiopathic Tinnitus
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen combined with tympanic chamber infu-sion of dexamethasone in patients with chronic idiopathic tinnitus.Methods Eighty patients with chronic idiopathic tinnitus admitted to Yongkang First People's Hospital between July 2022 and July 2023 were selected as the study ob-jects.They were grouped according to the random number table method(control group:tympanic chamber infusion of dexamethasone,observation group:hyperbaric oxygen + tympanic chamber infusion of dexamethasone).Blood rheology,Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)score,and tinnitus quantitative score were analyzed in both groups.Results Af-ter treatment,the blood rheology and PSQI scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(both P<0.05).The quantitative score of tinnitus grading in the obser-vation group was(7.49±1.37)point,which was lower than that in the control group(10.58±1.46)points after treatment,and the difference was statistically significant(t=9.761,P<0.05).Conclusion For the treatment of chronic idiopathic tinnitus patients,hyperbaric oxygen combined with tympanic chamber infusion of dexamethasone can alleviate tinnitus and improve the quality of sleep.
