Patients with Multiple Myeloma who are considered for high-dose therapy and autologous
transplantation at the bone marrow transplant clinic at the Wilmot Cancer Institute (WCI)
will be be approached to participate in this trial. Eligible patients who choose to
participate will be randomized so that half receive one hyperbaric oxygen therapy session
prior to hematopoetic stem cell infusion and half will not. All subjects will have their
blood counts monitored closely and time to count recovery will be compared between the two
groups.
