Abstract: Hypoxia is associated with increased resistance to chemo- and radiation-therapy. Hyperoxic treatment (hyperbaric oxygen) has previously been shown to potentiate the effect of some forms of chemotherapy, and this has been ascribed to enhanced cytotoxicity or...
Abstract: Over the past 50 years, hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) therapy has been used in a wide variety of medical conditions; this theraphy causes an increase in oxygen tension in blood and tissues. In the treatment of malignant gliomas, HBO therapy is used for the...
Abstract: The study's primary objective was to review (for the years 2003 to 2006) the outcomes of using prophylactic hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to prevent osteoradionecrosis (ORN) in a group of patients previously exposed to radiotherapy of the head and neck. A...
Abstract: Necrotizing fasciitis of the head and neck is a rare polymicrobial infection, rapidly progressing with a potentially fatal outcome, without early recognition and treatment. Odontogenic infection spreading to the lower neck or anterior chest is an important...
Abstract: A 60-year-old man with esophageal carcinoma in the upper 3rd underwent palliative treatment including photodynamic therapy, brachytherapy, external beam irradiation, and esophageal stenting. He developed a symptomatic malignant esophagotracheo-bronchial...
Abstract: The most important predictors of long-term survival in patients with cardiac ischemic disease are left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular volumes, infarction size, presence and extent of residual myocardial ischemia. One of the most important...
Abstract Road traffic injuries are the leading cause (60%) of brain injury. It is estimated that India would occupy third position for Traumatic brain injury (TBI) by 2020. The most vulnerable group of population is the young adults for TBI. The purpose of the present...
Abstract: The purpose of this report is to explore possible therapeutic use of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO(2)) technology on renal and urogenital diseases. HBO(2) reduces inflammation, immunity and inflammatory cytokines, stimulates wound repair and angioneogenesis,...
Abstract: Direct spectrophotometry has been recognized as a standard reference method in the treatment of victims of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. Recently, Masimo (USA) has developed a pulse oximeter for the detection of HbCO. Using new probes, similar to those...
