Recent Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) News
Bone and joint infections due to anaerobic bacteria: an analysis of 61 cases and review of the literature.
Abstract: The diagnosis of anaerobic bone and joint infections (BJI) were underestimated before the advent of molecular identification and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). We report 61...
[Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is effective for diabetic foot ulcers. Recent randomized controlled trials have provided better knowledge].
Abstract: Rosén, Oscarsson, Arnell, Samuelsson, , , , , (). [Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is effective for diabetic foot ulcers. Recent randomized controlled trials have provided better knowledge]. Lakartidningen,...
CD34+/CD45-dim stem cell mobilization by hyperbaric oxygen – changes with oxygen dosage.
Abstract: Because hyperbaric oxygen treatment mobilizes bone marrow derived-stem/progenitor cells by a free radical mediated mechanism, we hypothesized that there may be differences in mobilization efficiency based on exposure to different oxygen...
Effects of various physical treatment methods on arteriolar vasomotion and microhemodynamic functional characteristics
Abstract As part of a placebo-controlled study, high-resolution measurement methods were used to examine, on the basis of representative functional characteristics of microcirculation, whether and to what extent six different, commercially...
Hyperbaric oxygen intervention on expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and vascular endothelial growth factor in spinal cord injury models in rats.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) intervention is a main therapeutic method and the curative effect has been certified for spinal cord injury (SCI), but the mechanisms of the neuroprotective effect of HBO on SCI remain elusive. This study aimed to...
Refractory postsurgical pyoderma gangrenosum in a patient with Beckwith Wiedemann syndrome: response to multimodal therapy.
Abstract: Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare neutrophilic dermatosis that may be difficult to diagnose and treat. We presented a 41-year-old woman who required skin grafting following third-degree burns to her left breast. She suffered recurrent...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy no better than sham in improving post-concussion symptoms following mild traumatic brain injury.
Abstract: Bennett, , , , , , , , (2013). Hyperbaric oxygen therapy no better than sham in improving post-concussion symptoms following mild traumatic brain injury. Diving and hyperbaric medicine, 2013...
Osteoradionecrosis–a review of current concepts in defining the extent of the disease and a new classification proposal.
Abstract: Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) is potentially a debilitating and serious consequence of radiotherapy to the head and neck. Although it is often defined as an area of exposed bone that does not heal, it can also exist without breaching the...
Effect of normobaric hyperoxic therapy on tissue oxygenation in diabetic feet: a pilot study.
Abstract: Adequate tissue oxygenation is an essential factor in diabetic foot management. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy has been successfully used as adjunctive treatment to improve the healing of diabetic foot ulcers. However, the clinical uses...
