Abstract: Experimental myocardial infarction was induced in 50 rabbits, 25 of which were subjected to hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) used as a single procedure or in combination with the antioxidant tocopheroli acetas. HBO was found to promote reduction of the...
Abstract: We report our experience with general anaesthesia (GA) supplemented with subarachnoid bupivacaine and morphine for coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) in 18 patients. Fifteen patients were male, and mean age was 62 yr. Anaesthesia (GA) was induced with...
Abstract: A total of 52 patients with myocardial infarction have been examined. The patients have been subjected to HBO procedures. 40-62 min sessions with a working pressure of 0.3-1.1 atm were performed. The optimal pressure during the first days is 0.3 atm with a...
Abstract: We explored the ability of increased oxygen pressure to modify necrosis in an open-chest rabbit model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. A branch of the left coronary artery was occluded for 30 minutes followed by 3 hours of reperfusion. Infarction was...
Abstract: A 65 year old patient admitted with carbon monoxide poisoning developed acute pulmonary oedema during treatment with hyperbaric oxygen. After initial recovery he developed extensive intestinal ischaemia which rapidly led to death. It is suggested that...
Abstract: The experiment on 90 rabbits and 30 rats has been conducted to compare the effect of different regimes of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) (pressure of oxygen: 3 ata, 2 ata, oxygen-air mixture: 3 ata and 1 ata, respectively) on the morphofunctional state of...
Abstract: A procedure is described for the radioisotope assay of acetylcholine transferase activity (EC 2.3.1.6), which involved specific synthesis of acetylcholine in vivo. Bromine acetylcholine was used as an inhibitor of the enzyme; 14C-AcCoA was used as a...
Abstract: Death in normobaric hyperoxia was related in the past to pulmonary insufficiency of the edematous lung. However, high arterial O2 tension on final collapse led to the suggestion that the heart and not the lung is the first organ that fails. We measured...
