Abstract: Cauda equina syndrome has been reported recently in patients receiving continuous spinal anesthesia using newly developed microcatheters (28 gauge). Failure of microcatheters to allow adequate mixing of local anesthetic was studied as a possible mechanism of...
Abstract: To examine the effect of acute hyperbaric exposure on cardiovascular response to orthostasis, a passive 70 degrees head-up tilt (HUT) test was performed for 15 min in a simulated compressed-air hyperbaric environment of 3 atm abs at ambient temperature of 31...
Abstract: As a result of enhanced cure rate and survival time of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) treated by radiotherapy, sequelae of radiation injury to the optic nerve are becoming important, of which the authors report 5 cases (6 eyes) observed in the...
Abstract: Meckel's diverticulum is the most common congenital abnormality of the small bowel; it occurs in approximately 2% of the population. Complications of Meckel's diverticulum include hemorrhage, usually associated with heterotopic tissue within the...
Abstract: Hypoxia plays an important role in pathogenesis of infectious diseases. Therefore, its correction is an essential factor in pathogenetic antibacterial treatment. Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) as a leading method in current antihypoxic therapy was studied in...
Abstract: In the present study skeletal muscle PO2 measurements were performed in patients with gas gangrene and anaerobic soft tissue infections before, during and after hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Polarographic PO2 needle electrodes appeared to be suitable for...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO), as an adjuvant treatment in necrotizing soft tissues infections and in gas gangrene is reviewed, including its specific effects, experimental studies and clinical reports. With a global therapeutic management, considered as an...
Abstract: Ten patients (5 with atopic dermatitis and 5 with asthma-prurigo) aged 8-38 years, were treated with hyperbarie oxygenation, at the Institute of Maritime and Tropical Medicine. Daily one exposure was applied at 0.1 MPa pure oxygen, during 15 days. Parallelly...
Abstract: Altogether 22 patients with concomitant cardio-cerebral acute pathology underwent all-round examinations during and after sessions of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO). The highest clinical effect was produced by minor, substituting doses of HBO. The revealed...
