Demand Valve Oxygen Therapy (DVOT) is a way of delivering high flow oxygen therapy using a device that only delivers oxygen when the patient breathes in and shuts off when they breathe out. DVOT is commonly used to treat conditions such as cluster headache, which affects up to four in 1000 people (0.4%),[1][2][3] and is a recommended first aid procedure for several diving disorders.[4][5] It is also a recommended prophylactic for decompression sickness in the event of minor omitted decompression without symptoms.[5]
