Abstract: A patient with a cervical spinal cord injury receiving intrathecal baclofen for spasticity control underwent a 7 week course of hyperbaric oxygen therapy to induce healing of an ischial decubitus ulcer. After completion of this treatment and during a routine...
Abstract: Compressed air, and more recently hyperbaric oxygen, have been used and misused in medical treatment for more than 300 years. Advances in physiology have led to rational protocols for hyperbaric oxygen use. Hyperbaric oxygen will enhance wound healing by...
Abstract: To evaluate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on chronic wound healing, 16 otherwise healthy patients who had nondiabetic, chronic leg ulcers with no large vessel disease were included in a double-blind study. Patients were grouped according to age and...

Abstract: Enterovesical fistula is a rare complication of pelvic radiotherapy. Recurrent disease is the cause of fistulization in most patients. We identified 14 patients who developed enterovesical fistula in the absence of tumor recurrence. These women were at high...
Abstract: Respiratory complications, especially pulmonary edema, account for over 50% of mortalities in inhalation injuries. This study was conducted to determine the effect of free radical scavengers and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) in vivo on reducing pulmonary edema....
Abstract: Snyder, Hui, Flugstad, Viarengo, , , , , (1994). More cases of possible neurologic toxicity associated with single subarachnoid injections of 5% hyperbaric lidocaine. Anesthesia and analgesia, 1994...
Abstract: A 36-year-old male was admitted because of swelling and pain in the lower left limb. He had been diagnosed as having non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus 4 years previously and had been treated unsuccessfully with insulin. Since gas formation was...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy provided in specially designed pressure chambers is currently the treatment of choice for decompression sickness, arterial gas embolism, and serious carbon monoxide poisoning. It is an important adjunct in the treatment of gas...
