Prospective Trial Comparing Response to Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment in Patients With Interstitial Cystitis

January 12, 2017 updated by: Kenneth Peters, MD

A Prospective Trial Comparing the Response to Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment in Patients With Ulcerative and Non-Ulcerative Interstitial Cystitis

To review the results of Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy (HBOT) on the symptoms of interstitial cystitis (IC). To determine if there is greater symptom improvement in the ulcerative vs the non-ulcerative patients with interstitial cystitis.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Global Response Assessment (GRA)
Time Frame: 3 months post treatment
The GRA measures overall improvement with therapy. The patient's response describes their current condition compared to before they received hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). Responses are: 1 Markedly Worse, 2 Moderately Worse, 3 Mildly Worse, 4 Unchanged, 5 Mildly Better, 6 Moderately Better and 7 Markedly Better.
3 months post treatment
