[Acute intoxication with hydrogen peroxide with air emboli in central nervous system–a case report].
Abstract: 54-year-old woman with brain gas emboli after an accidental ingestion of concentrated hydrogen peroxide was described. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a water-soluble, caustic liquid. Exposure to concentrated (> 30-35%) hydrogen peroxide may cause...
The effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on oxidative stress, inflammation, and symptoms in children with autism: an open-label pilot study.
Abstract: Recently, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has increased in popularity as a treatment for autism. Numerous studies document oxidative stress and inflammation in individuals with autism; both of these conditions have demonstrated improvement with HBOT, along...
Cardiovascular changes induced by cold water immersion during hyperbaric hyperoxic exposure.
Abstract: The present study was designed to assess the cardiac changes induced by cold water immersion compared with dry conditions during a prolonged hyperbaric and hyperoxic exposure (ambient pressure between 1.6 and 3 ATA and PiO(2) between 1.2 and 2.8 ATA). Ten...
Apolipoprotein E genotype and response of carbon monoxide poisoning to hyperbaric oxygen treatment.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) reduced the incidence of cognitive sequelae 6 weeks after carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning compared with normobaric oxygen (NBO2). The apolipoprotein (APOE) epsilon4 allele predicts unfavorable neurologic outcome after brain injury and...
Anesthesia for Cesarean section in a patient with a transposition of great arteries–case report.
Abstract: Transposition of great arteries (TGA) is one of the mixing lesions between right and left side with a prevelance of 0.21 per 1,000 live births. A 25 years old lady from KSA, Gravida 3, Para 1 + 1, at 34 weeks gestational age was admitted to KAUH with...
