Clinical Trial Summary

Middle ear barotrauma (MEB) is the most common complication during hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). Though Valsalva and Toynbee maneuvers have been proposed to prevent MEB, still some patients discontinue HBOT due to severe otalgia, hemorrhage or perforation of tympanic membrane associated with HBOT. Currently, there is no optimal prophylactic management for MEB associated with HBOT. The aim of this protocol is to investigate the efficacy of self-acupressure therapy on MEB associated with HBOT.
