[Use of radiomodifiers during radiotherapy of patients with malignant tumors].
Abstract: The utilization of various radiomodifiers (hyperbaric oxygenation, metronidazole and their combination, tourniquet and total body gas hypoxia, unconventional dose fractionation) in radiation therapy of over 2000 cancer patients with...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Promoting healing in difficult cases.
Abstract: Inhalation of pressurized 100% oxygen is a helpful adjunctive treatment for certain patients, because the increased oxygen carried by the blood to the tissue enhances new growth of microcirculation and, thus, healing. Patients with tissue...
Necrotizing fasciitis.
Abstract: Necrotizing fasciitis was diagnosed in 16 patients during the years 1980 to 1984. All patients were managed by a uniform protocol consisting of radical excisional surgery, intravenous antibiotics, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. An overall...
