Summary

This is a randomised, controlled, double-blind, placebo trial of HBOT (intervention) superiority in the treatment of VOC in SCD, to demonstrate the effectiveness of HBOT for the decrease in pain level in the treatment of SCD-VOC.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

HBOT in Hyperbaric chamber

HBOT is the administration of oxygen (FIO2 = 100%) at a pressure higher than atmospheric pressure (2 ATA). The pressure increase is achieved by introducing compressed air into the hyperbaric chamber. This study will use a hyperbaric chamber that is already marketed, licensed and used in other diseases.

DEVICE

Hyperbaric chamber for placebo

Hyperbaric chamber is the same chamber used for HBOT, but here with a limited hyperpressure (1.3 ATA) and using ambient air (FIO2=0.21), with illusion of treatment in healthy volunteers. All other aspects of the procedure are identical to those of the intervention. As in the intervention arm, there will be a compression period (although shorter), of 5 min, followed by 85 min at 1.3 ATA, then a decompression period of 5 min (total duration of 95 min).
