Abstract: An attempt has been made to determine the clinical usage of hyperbaric oxygen therapy at 83 North American hyperbaric treatment centers from 1971 to 1978. Questions were asked about the conditions or diseases treated, yearly case load for each condition,...

Hyperbaric oxygen in severe burns.
Abstract: When a preliminary analysis suggested that treatment with HBO might cause an increased mortality due to HBO, a paired control study of 36 patients treated with HBO and 36 matched controls was carried out. While mortality, mean day of death, and total...
Otologic aspects of ear burns.
Abstract: Otologic experiences in a large burn center are discussed and the following areas are emphasized. First, the otologic effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy and the prevention and treatment of barotrauma that is occasionally secondary to this therapy. Second,...

Gas gangrene as a complication of burns.
Abstract: Gas gangrene infection in burnt patients is a rare but often fatal complication. It may however, be successfully treated by the use of hyperbaric oxygen and later judicious amputation of dead tissues. Five cases of bacteriologically proven gas gangrene,...
Hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment of burns.
Abstract: Since 1972, over 800 burn victims have been treated with hyperbaric oxygen at the Burn Center of Sherman Oaks Community Hospital in Los Angeles. HBO is used only as an adjuvant to standard resuscitation and is not intended to replace current accepted...
[Effect of hyperbaric oxygen on burns of various depths in animal experiments].
Abstract: In various diseases and injuries the application of hyperbaric oxygen is an additional measure of therapy using the oxygen physically dissolved in the plasma. This method is more and more applied in burn injuries. Some problems were studied in animal...
