Intracardiac thrombus formation induced by carbon monoxide poisoning.
Abstract: Carbon monoxide (CO) is one of the leading causes of poisoning; it inhibits oxygen delivery, subsequently causing ischemic changes and ultimately death by multiorgan failure. Furthermore, thromboembolic episodes due to CO poisoning have been reported....
Effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on patients with herpes zoster.
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to observe the effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) therapy on patients with herpes zoster. A total of 68 cases with herpes zoster were randomly divided into HBO2 and control groups. The patients in the control group were treated...
Top-cited articles on hyperbaric oxygen therapy published from 2000 to 2010.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO2T) is a specialty with wide clinical applications and study fields. An evaluation of the major research direction of HBO2T studies would be helpful for researchers in this field. In this study, we identified the most frequently...
Hyperbaric side effects in a traumatic brain injury randomized clinical trial.
Abstract: To catalog the side effects of 2.4 atmospheres absolute (atm abs) hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) vs. sham on post-concussion symptoms in military service members with combat-related, mild traumatic brain injury (TBI). Fifty subjects diagnosed with TBI were...
Anal canal mucinous adenocarcinoma with invasion of gluteus and perineum treated with surgery and hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: The case of a 66-year-old female patient with late diagnosis of giant anal canal mucinous adenocarcinoma invading the gluteal and vulvar regions is reported. Because of the patient's severe clinical status and disease morbidity, surgical resection of the...
Changing trends and the role of medical management on the outcome of patients treated for osteoradionecrosis of the mandible: experience from a regional head and neck unit.
Abstract: This study is a retrospective review of treatment outcomes of osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the mandible with specific reference to the evolving role of medical management with pentoxifylline, tocopherol, and doxycycline. We reviewed the presentation and...
Oxygen Chamber Can Boost Brain Repair Years After Stroke or Trauma
Through the use of hyperbaric, oxygen-rich chambers, medical researchers have found a way to restore a significant amount of neurological function in brain tissue thought to be chronically damaged by stroke, traumatic injury, and metabolic disorder -- even years after...
