Abstract: This article reviews the pearls and pitfalls of high-altitude sickness, decompression sickness, and barotrauma; new findings relevant to the near-drowning patient; continued controversies on hyperbaric oxygen for carbon monoxide poisoning; pitfalls in...
Abstract: Cardiovascular responses after epidural alkalinized lignocaine and subarachnoid hyperbaric bupivacaine administration were studied using a non-invasive cardiac output measurement in 32 ASA Grade I-II patients undergoing orthopaedic leg surgery (hip...
Abstract: Tc-HMPAO isotope brain scans were performed in three patients who received hyperbaric oxygen treatment following carbon monoxide poisoning. Cerebral perfusion imaging provides an index of severity of the initial cerebral damage which correlated with outcome....
Abstract: A previous nonblinded study has suggested beneficial effects from hyperbaric oxygen treatment of superficial partial-thickness radiation burns in human volunteers. This protocol was designed to either confirm or challenge these previous findings in a...
Abstract: Three cases of laryngeal radionecrosis are reported. In two cases partial surgery after radiotherapy probably triggered the radionecrosis. All patients were treated successfully with medical therapy. Laryngeal radionecrosis is an uncommon complication of...

Abstract: Biomedical technology as applied to wound healing management allows specific evaluations of the oxygen-related pathophysiology of non-healing wounds. In many of these cases the use of transcutaneous oxygen mapping of the skin and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO)...
Abstract: Recent case reports have suggested that subarachnoid or epidural administration of local anesthetics may cause peripheral neurologic deficits. To describe the course and evaluate possible risk factors of such reactions, 21 reports in the Swedish adverse drug...
Abstract: Despite many advantages, spinal anesthesia often is followed by undesirable decreases in blood pressure, for which the ideal treatment remains controversial. Because spinal anesthesia-induced sympathectomy and management with a pure alpha-adrenergic agonist...
