Abstract: We evaluated the efficacy of subatmospheric pressure and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) as adjuncts in the treatment of hypoxic full-thickness wounds in a rabbit model. We hypothesized that subatmospheric pressure and HBO independently are effective in improving...

Hyperbaric oxygen in trauma and surgical emergencies.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO), that is the administration of 100% oxygen delivered under pressure, has a beneficial effect in several surgical conditions. Its use has been assessed and audited and its pharmacological effects demonstrated. It is appropriate...

Combined photodynamic therapy and hyperbaric oxygenation in carcinoma of the esophagus and the esophago-gastric junction.
Abstract: The photochemical reaction of photodynamic therapy (PDT) depends on the presence of molecular oxygen. Due to anoxic regions in tumor tissue and vascular shutdown during PDT the efficiency is limited. Therefore, the use of hyperbaric oxygen which increases...
MRI evaluation of aseptic osteonecrosis in children over the course of hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: The study aimed at MRI evaluation of aseptic osteonecrosis (AON) in children over the course of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy. Retrospective analysis of 72 MRI studies in 20 children presenting with AON during chemotherapy. Two groups were differentiated:...
Quantifying the radiation exposure of nursing staff delivering hyperbaric oxygen therapy to grade IV neuroblastoma patients post 131I-MIBG therapy.
Abstract: Melbourne, Lehm, , , , , , , (2000). Quantifying the radiation exposure of nursing staff delivering hyperbaric oxygen therapy to grade IV neuroblastoma patients post 131I-MIBG therapy. European journal of nuclear medicine, 2000...
Necrotizing fasciitis and toxic shock-like syndrome caused by group B streptococcus.
Abstract: A recent increase in reports of necrotizing fasciitis resulting from group B streptococcus has alerted physicians to a possible concomitant increase of toxic shock-like syndrome. We report the second case of group B streptococcus causing necrotizing...
Effective treatment strategies for diabetic foot wounds.
Abstract: Nonhealing foot ulcers in patients with diabetes are the leading cause of complications such as infection and amputation. This is a review of the traditional methods of good wound care for the diabetic foot ulcer. We also introduce newer methods for the...
