Neurological manifestation of arterial gas embolism following standard altitude chamber flight: a case report.
Abstract: In the course of a decompression at flight level 280 (28,000 ft) in an altitude chamber flight, a 45-yr-old cabin air traffic controller developed sudden numbness in his left upper and lower extremities and, soon after, complete paralysis in the left side,...
[Primary soft tissue coverage and specific after-care of endosseous implants in pre-irradiated orbits].
Abstract: After orbital exenteration and high- dose irradiation (60 Gy on average), 17 endosseous implants were placed periorbitally in 5 patients. No hyperbaric oxygen therapy was performed. All implants were primarily covered with regional or free flaps. After...
Prediction of the surgical outcome for the treatment of cervical myelopathy by using hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: The effectiveness of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) in predicting the recovery after surgery in patients with cervical compression myelopathy was evaluated. HBO has been used to treat brain and spinal cord diseases, but the effect is generally temporary....
A 10-year experience in the use of air medical transport for medical scene calls.
Abstract: The objective of this retrospective descriptive study was to evaluate the use of air medical services in response to medical scene calls for transport to tertiary care in the rural setting. This study is a retrospective descriptive review of all medical...
Toxic shock syndrome and necrotizing fasciitis complicating neglected sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus disease: report of a case.
Abstract: This study was conducted to report the rare combination of necrotizing fasciitis and toxic shock syndrome, which both complicated neglected sacrococcygeal pilonidal sinus disease. A case report is presented. We describe the rare case of a previously healthy...

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for radiation-induced brain injury in children.
Abstract: Radiation-induced necrosis (RIN) of the brain is a complication associated with the use of aggressive focal treatments such as radioactive implants and stereotactic radiosurgery. In an attempt to treat patients with central nervous system (CNS) RIN, ten...
