title: [Oxygen treatment methods--a critical analysis of established and controversial procedures (II)].
abstract: All diseases related to chronic or intermittent hypoxaemia can be efficaciously treated with the conventional oxygen therapy. The effectiveness of alternative oxygen therapies (oxygen multistep therapy, intravenous oxygen insufflation, haematogen oxidation therapy and ultraviolet blood radiation) has not been proved for any of the alleged numerous indications. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can be tried, in single cases, outside of its internationally recognized indications, for the treatment of acute hypoxy of the inner ear.
