Prevalence of augmented renal clearance and performance of glomerular filtration estimates in Indigenous Australian patients requiring intensive care admission.
Abstract: Augmented renal clearance (ARC) refers to the enhanced renal excretion of circulating solute commonly demonstrated in numerous critically ill subgroups. This study aimed to describe the prevalence of ARC in critically ill Indigenous...
Growth Hormone (GH) and Cardiovascular System
Abstract This review describes the positive effects of growth hormone (GH) on the cardiovascular system. We analyze why the vascular endothelium is a real internal secretion gland, whose inflammation is the first step for developing...
Hyperbaric oxygen treatment in thromboangiitis obliterans: a retrospective clinical audit.
Abstract: Wounds refractory to standard treatment in patients with thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO, Buerger's disease) are associated with amputation, other morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of...
Efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in bacterial biofilm eradication.
Abstract: Chronic wounds typically require several concurrent therapies, such as debridement, pressure offloading, and systemic and/or topical antibiotics. The aim of this study was to examine the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT)...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy of air embolus in the cerebral venous sinuses after intracranial surgery: a case report.
Abstract: A case with cerebral venous air embolism (CVAE) after neurosurgery and treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is presented. This is a rare and potentially fatal complication that neurosurgeons should be aware of. A 52-year-old male...
Osteoradionecrosis in Subaxial Cervical Spine – a Rare and Devastating Complication: A Case Report.
Abstract: Osteoradionecrosis, a rare complication of radiation therapy, is a slow progression disease which affects the surrounding structures of spinal components. It essentially weakens the soft tissue and bony configuration and can cause nerve...
