objectives the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of normobaric hyperoxia on clinical neurological outcomes of patients with severe traumatic brain injuries. we used the glasgow outcome scale (gos), barthel index, and modified rankin scale (mrs) to measure the outcomes of patients with tbi. patients and methods sixty-eight consecutive patients with severe tbi (mean glasgow coma s...

Five-week-old normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were subjected to hyperbaric oxygenation with an enhanced atmospheric pressure (950 mmHg) and an increased oxygen concentration (36%) for 6 h per day. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were monitored for 8 weeks of hyperbaric oxygenation period. After 8 weeks of hyperbaric...

The purpose of this article is to review literature related to hyperbaric oxygenation and wound healing. The article discusses the role of oxygen in wound healing, as well as the effects of hyperbaric oxygenation to promote wound healing, and focuses on the use of hyperbaric oxygenation to treat foot wounds in patients with diabetes. A review of salient literature to support the use of hyperbar...

Hyperbaric oxygenation was used in the combined post-operative treatment of 63 victims with distal segments of lower extremities torn off or damaged by mine and burst effect. The patients consecutively received medicamentous therapy, which improved tissue microcirculation (rheopolyglucinum, haemodesum), surgical intervention, course of hyperbaric oxygenation, and after it anticoagulant preparat...

Protective Effects of Acetazolamide and Hyperbaric Oxygenation on Experimentally Induced Syncope • The protective effects of acetazolamide and hyperbaric oxygenation on experimentally induced syncope were evaluated in seven healthy male subjects. Syncope was induced by vigorous hyperventilation and Valsalva maneuver. Each subject performed these procedures three times in each of the following c...

Observations on blood fl ow and metabolism in brain damaged children responding to hyperbaric oxygenation and the world wide clinical findings of its benefit. Purpose The purpose of this presentation is to document the positive clinical changes that are associated with the use of hyperbaric oxygenation in children with cerebral palsy and brain injuries. Summary Cerebral Palsy is a term that enc...

Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated inflammatory skin disorder that affects 2-3% of the population worldwide. Current therapies, including biologic agents, often have adverse effects and incomplete efficacy. Recent studies suggest PI3K/AKT/FOXO signalling cascade interleukin-1 β play crucial role in pathogenesis psoriasis. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy, safe well-tolerated procedure, has been s...
