Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Peripheral Neuropathy
Abstract: In 1982, a 55-year-old woman was treated by total cystectomy and adjuvant radiotherapy/chemotherapy for a leiomyosarcoma of the bladder. Fifteen years later she presented with symptoms and signs of sacral plexopathy. Investigations revealed...

Abstract: There are some occlusive disorders in the vasa nervorum and metabolic changes disminishing oxygen liberation by erytrocites at the capillary blood vessels, and these disturbances lead to endoneural microhypoxia. Hyperbaric oxygen reverts hypoxia in the...
Abstract: Cauda equine syndrome is a rare neurological complication associated with subarachnoid anesthesia, and particularly with the use of 5% hyperbaric lidocaine and small gauge catheters. Our aim was to study a possible anatomical factor that might impede...
Abstract: Six cases of cauda equina syndrome with varying severity were reported to the Swedish Pharmaceutical Insurance during the period 1993-1997. All were associated with spinal anaesthesia using hyperbaric 5% lignocaine. Five cases had single-shot spinal...
Abstract: Transient radicular irritation (TRI) has been described after spinal anesthesia, particularly with 5% hyperbaric spinal lidocaine. The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of TRI in obstetric patients. All obstetric patients undergoing spinal...
Abstract: We report a case of repeated delayed pain after cystoscopy under spinal lidocaine anaesthesia, which may be caused by transient radicular irritation. The possible aetiology of the symptoms is discussed. Panadero, Monedero, Fernandez-Liesa, Percaz, Olavide,...
Abstract: To evaluate the etiologies of cauda equina syndrome (CES) and transient radicular irritation (TRI) or transient neurologic symptoms (TNSs) following hyperbaric spinal anesthesia. A review of recent (since 1991) and prior (since 1941) investigations regarding...
Abstract: To assess the relationship between blood flow and the complications of diabetes mellitus, we investigated the changes in the velocity of blood flow in the ophthalmic artery before and after hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO), one of the treatments for diabetic...
