“…A randomized controlled study showed that HBOT could improve symptoms of radiation‐induced cystitis compared to standard therapy 46 . The overall effectiveness rate of HBOT for radiation‐induced cystitis is 87.3%, with a complete remission rate of 65.3% 44 ; the complication rate is 9.6%, with common complications including ear pain and visual disturbances. The incidence of permanent or severe complications is very low 45 …”

Radiation‐induced bladder injury is a common complication after pelvic radiotherapy. Few studies exist on diagnosing and treating radiation‐induced bladder injury, with no established guidelines or consensus in China or internationally. Clinical physicians' diagnosis and treatment of radiation‐induced bladder injury are primarily based on their own clinical experience, and there is an urgent need for unified guidelines to standardize clinical diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, the Chinese Radiation Therapy Oncology Group, China Anti‐Cancer Association Tumor Support Therapy Committee, and China Anti‐Cancer Association Tumor Radiation Protection Committee gathered experts to develop Chinese clinical practice guidelines, guiding diagnosing and treating radiation‐induced bladder injury. The development of these guidelines adopted the grading system of evidence quality and recommendation strength (GRADE).
