Abstract: Despite some theoretical concern about cancer-enhancing effects ofhyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) therapy, it is frequently administered to cancer patients. We evaluated the growth of murine breast cancer cells in the lung after hyperbaric oxygen treatment in an...
Abstract: The effect of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO2) on survival during the early phase of severe blunt chest injury (BChI) has not been elucidated. Our aim was to investigate this effect on human victims of BChI. We monitored cardiac index (CI), stroke volume index...
Abstract: Perioperative mortality in patients with Eisenmenger's syndrome is very high, particularly following cesarean section. This case report describes the successful use of low-dose bupivacaine-fentanyl spinal anesthesia for lower extremity surgery in a...
