Recent Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) News
Magnetic resonance imaging of fat embolism syndrome–case report.
Abstract: The authors describe a case of fat embolism syndrome in a 20-year-old male. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging demonstrated multiple small cerebral infarcts suggesting this is the cause of the associated cerebral dysfunction. He underwent...
One hour in 1 ATA oxygen enhances rat alveolar macrophage chemiluminescence and fungal cytotoxicity.
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine if 100% O2 would enhance rat pulmonary alveolar macrophage (PAM) oxidative killing of conidia of the fungus Neurospora crassa. First, we found that incubation in 100% O2 had no effect on conidia...
Accuracy of oxyhemoglobin saturation monitors during simulated altitude exposure of men with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Abstract: Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are at risk for hypoxemia during air travel. We assessed the comparative performance of oxyhemoglobin saturation (%O2Hb) monitors on these patients during hypobaric exposure. We...
[Lipid peroxidation in vasopressin-induced pulmonary edema and hyperbaric oxygenation therapy].
Abstract: Experiments in 150 albino rats have revealed that hyperbaric oxygenation (303.98 kPa) causes no decrease in pulmonary tissue hyperhydration and its blood filling induced by pituitrin administration. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy enhances...
[Oxygen therapy of gonarthrosis deformans].
Abstract: In the article is presented the comparative estimate of the oxygen therapy methods in treatment of the deforming gonarthrosis. The new method of treatment is described, including 4-5 courses of hyperbaric oxygenation therapy at 1-1.5 atms...

Hyperbaric Oxygenation in the Comprehensive Therapy of Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (Clinico-Immunologic Study)
Abstract: For 35 of 50 patients with rheumatoid arthritis traditional drug therapy was a minor success for a long time. Without any modifications of the drug therapy every patient went through a course of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO): 21 sessions...
