Recent Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) News
[Mechanisms of the therapeutic effect of hyperbaric oxygenation in minor differential pressure in stroke].
Abstract: Analysis is made of a complex of clinicoelectrophysiologic, biochemical and biophysical studies conducted in 220 patients with brain stroke, receiving a course of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) at minor differential pressure (1.2-1.3...
[Infections of soft tissues by bacterial synergism].
Abstract: The treatment of synergistic bacterial soft tissue infections includes usually surgical debridements and radical excisions of necrotic tissues, antibiotic therapy and volumic resuscitation. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy did not prove...
Management of chronic staphylococcal osteomyelitis of the temporal bone: the use of hyperbaric oxygen.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) is an effective adjunct in the management of selected otolaryngologic problems including radiation-induced necrosis of the temporal bone, malignant external otitis, mandibular osteoradionecrosis and refractory...
[Infections of soft tissues by bacterial synergism].
Abstract: The treatment of synergistic bacterial soft tissue infections includes usually surgical debridements and radical excisions of necrotic tissues, antibiotic therapy and volumic resuscitation. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy did not prove...
[Hyperbaric oxygenation therapy and cicatrization].
Abstract: HOT is a very useful therapeutic addition in chronic wounds presenting a healing problem and for which usual treatment were unsuccessful. In order to be fully effective, HOT must be included in a strategy of care, taking into account, not...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in chronic vascular wound management.
Abstract: Many nonhealing tissues are hypoxic, with oxygen tensions frequently ranging from 5 to 15 mmHg. In such an environment, the normal wound healing sequence is disrupted or halted and phagocytic killing activity depressed. So the adjunctive...
Carbon monoxide poisoning–recent advances.
Abstract: Proudfoot, , , , , , , , (1990). Carbon monoxide poisoning--recent advances. Acta clinica Belgica. Supplementum, 1990 ;13():61-8. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2239067
[Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the treatment of wounds, in plastic and reconstructive surgery].
Abstract: After recalling the mechanism of action of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) on healing processes, the authors review the principal indications for this technique in plastic and reconstructive surgery, such as crush injuries and acute...
Patients’ decisions about continuing with therapy in chronic illness: a study of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in multiple sclerosis.
Abstract: The criteria which may be employed by chronically ill people in their decision about whether to continue with therapy were investigated in the context of a clinical trial of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for multiple sclerosis. An open-ended...
