[Hyperbaric oxygenation and drug therapy in treatment of nonspecific ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease].
Abstract: Patients with nonspecific ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease were treated with drug therapy (prednisolone, sulphasalazine, metronidazole per os and hydrocortisone per rectum) and subjected to 12 sessions of HBO. Every 10-14 months the HBO course was...
[Hyperbaric oxygenation in the comprehensive therapy of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (clinico-immunologic study)].
Abstract: For 35 of 50 patients with rheumatoid arthritis traditional drug therapy was a minor success for a long time. Without any modifications of the drug therapy every patient went through a course of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO): 21 sessions under 1.7 ata for 40...

Intracranial pressure responses during hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: The responses of intracranial pressure (ICP) to hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy and arterial gas pressures were investigated. ICP was measured through a ventricular or spinal drainage catheter in patients with brain tumor or cerebrovascular disease. Changes...
Postradiation dental extractions without hyperbaric oxygen.
Abstract: This study examined the incidence of osteoradionecrosis after tooth extraction with low-epinephrine or epinephrine-free, nonlidocaine local anesthetics and conservative surgical techniques. Estimates of the absorbed radiation dose on irradiated alveolar bone...
A pilot study of hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment of human stroke.
Abstract: We administered hyperbaric oxygen or air in a double-blind prospective protocol to 39 patients with ischemic cerebral infarction. We interrupted the study when we noticed what appeared to be a trend favoring the air-treated patients, whose neurological...
Hyperbaric oxygen treatment of healthy volunteers with u.v.-irradiated blister wounds.
Abstract: Healthy male volunteers were wounded by skin blistering, excision of the blister roof and u.v.-irradiation of the dermal wound bed. The lesions, painlessly inflicted on one forearm, were occluded, and no systemic therapy was given (n = 7). Ten days later the...
Beneficial effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in Nocardia brasiliensis soft-tissue infection.
Abstract: To report the success of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the treatment of Nocardia brasiliensis mycetoma. We believe this to be only the second report in the medical literature of hyperbaric oxygen therapy used in the therapy of nocardial disease. A 78-year-old...
