Abstract: The delivery of oxygen to the wound site is crucial in healing diabetic foot ulcers, and impairment of this process in people with diabetes leads to delayed wound repair. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy works by elevating the plasma oxygen level. Fibroblasts...
Abstract: Graft coronary artery disease (GCAD) is characterized by vascular narrowing resulting from intimal hyperplasia. Endothelin (ET)-1, derived from the vascular endothelium and macrophages, stimulates vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs), which leads to...
Abstract: To highlight the management of a Jehovah's witness surgical patient presenting for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest. A 47-yr-old male, Jehovah's Witness, with renal cell carcinoma was admitted for left radical nephrectomy...
Abstract: The purpose of the study was to test the hypothesis that intracoronary aqueous oxygen (AO) hyperbaric reperfusion reduces myocardial injury after prolonged coronary occlusion. Background. Attenuation of ischemia/reperfusion injury by the use of hyperbaric...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is considered an important stroke treatment strategy. To determine whether normobaric oxygen is neuroprotective, and, if so, what the therapeutic time window is. Experiment 1-Serial diffusion- and perfusion-weighted MRI (DWI and...
Abstract: Bubbles are introduced to the arterial circulation in many patients undergoing cardiac surgical procedures, and some of these distribute to the cerebral vessels. Larger bubbles may arrest in cerebral arterioles, causing ischemia and neuronal injury in the...
Abstract: Necrotizing fasciitis and myonecrosis can be rapidly fatal without prompt and aggressive medical and surgical therapy. We reviewed our experience with necrotizing fasciitis and myonecrosis in neutropenic pediatric oncology patients to describe associated...
Abstract: To analyse the antibiotic prescribing trends for exodontia and minor oral surgery in patients with a history of radiotherapy. Also, to evaluate the use of hyperbaric oxygen as a separate modality in the prevention of osteoradionecrosis. A survey of...
Abstract: Photosan, a mixture of porphyrin oligomers as sensitizer for photodynamic therapy (PDT), carry the risk of prolonged photosensitivity of the skin. New sensitizer such as 5-aminolaevulinic acid (ALA) with low rates of skin phototoxicity appear to be promising...
