Abstract: The optimal practice of medicine includes integrating individual clinical expertise with the best available clinical evidence from systematic research. This article reviews nine treatment modalities used for children who have cerebral palsy (CP), including...
Abstract: Zygomycosis is a rare but emerging mycosis. Because of the sub-optimal efficacy of the standard antifungal treatment for this disease, hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) has been used occasionally as an adjunctive therapeutic modality. A review of 28 published cases of...
Abstract: To assess the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) for treating haemorrhagic cystitis. From February 1997 to April 2004, seven patients with radiation-induced haemorrhagic cystitis were treated with HBO; they received a mean (range) of 30 (18-57) HBO...
Abstract: In this study we determined whether exposing mice to hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) would alter various disease parameters of a susceptible mouse strain infected with Leishmania amazonensis. BALB/c mice exposed to HBO (100% O2 at a pressure of 2.5 ATA, 1h before...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBO2) is used commonly for treatment of bone and soft-tissue radiation necrosis. It may be a potential therapy for radiation necrosis seen after brain irradiation. HBO2 risks include generalized tonic-clonic convulsions. We...
Abstract: After resective and reconstructive surgery in the gastrointestinal tract, oral feeding is traditionally avoided in order to minimize strain to the anastomoses and to reduce the inherent risks of the postoperatively impaired gastrointestinal motility....
Abstract: To describe 6 cases of rectourethral fistula in patients treated with brachytherapy plus external beam radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer and subsequent rectal biopsies or rectal surgery. A retrospective chart review was undertaken of patients with...
