The effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on blood vessel function in diabetes mellitus.
Abstract: Prolonged untreated diabetes mellitus leads to microangiopathy, tissue hypoxia and ischemic lesions; it increases the risk for stroke and exacerbates brain tissue damage following ischemia. Patients exhibit advanced atherosclerosis in...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy: types of injury and number of sessions–a review of 1506 cases.
Abstract: The aim of this work was to identify clinical data indicative of the number of hyperbaric oxygen therapy HBO2 sessions that should be prescribed for adjuvant treatment of tissue injuries of differing severity. A total of 1730 cases of...

Iatrogenic systemic air embolism treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: Air embolism is a rare and potentially severe complication of surgical and invasive procedures. Emboli large enough to produce symptoms require immediate treatment because of the risk of 'gas lock' in the right side of the heart and...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy improves myocardial diastolic function in diabetic patients.
Abstract: Myocardial diastolic dysfunction is the relaxation abnormality of ventricles that limits the diastolic filling and generally precedes diastolic heart failure. Diastolic dysfunction is a common finding in diabetes. Diabetic patients...
