Hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen is a treatment in which a patient breathes 100% oxygen intermittently while inside a treatment chamber at a pressure higher than at sea level pressure (ie, >1 atm). In certain circumstances, it represents the primary treatment modality,...
Phlebolymphedema-a common underdiagnosed and undertreated problem in the wound care clinic.
Abstract: This article focuses on the pathophysiology of phlebolymphedema, as well as proper diagnosis and treatment. It is hoped that this article will improve care of patients in wound care clinics and motivate wound care physicians to consider adding care of...

Correction of Hypoxia, a Critical Element for Wound Bed Preparation Guidelines: TIMEO2 Principle of Wound Bed Preparation.
Abstract: Wound bed preparation is an organized approach to create an optimal environment for wound healing by the use of the most cost-effective therapeutic options. It has become an essential part of wound management and seeks to use the latest findings from...
Commentary on the conversion to an advanced standard of care for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers and other chronic wounds.
Abstract: There have been notable contributions in the literature regarding the consensus for a new standard for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. The more recent advances in wound care therapies, modalities, and evidence-based research have demonstrated that an...
Treatment of postoperative lower extremity wounds using human fibroblast-derived dermis: a retrospective analysis.
Abstract: Human fibroblast-derived dermis skin substitute is a well-studied treatment for diabetic foot ulcers; however, no case series currently exist for its use in healing postoperative wounds of the lower extremity. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 32...
Gene expression profile of type II spinal cord decompression sickness.
Abstract: This study was an experimental, controlled, animal study. This study was to determine the changes of molecular pathology in spinal cord decompression sickness (SC-DCS) based on a rabbit model of SC-DCS with the aid of an all-gene expression profile chip....
Synergistic inhibitory effect of hyperbaric oxygen combined with sorafenib on hepatoma cells.
Abstract: Hypoxia is a common phenomenon in solid tumors, associated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy resistance, recurrence and metastasis. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy can increase tissue oxygen pressure and content to prevent the resistance, recurrence and...
