Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Diabetic Foot Ulcers
Abstract: Complications associated with diabetes are often expensive to treat, and commonly include foot ulceration. While most diabetic foot ulcers heal with standard treatment, when standard treatment measures fail, adjunctive therapies must be considered. We...
Abstract: Older adults are more likely to have chronic wounds than younger people, and the effect of chronic wounds on quality of life is particularly profound in this population. Wound healing slows with age, but the basic biology underlying chronic wounds and the...

Abstract: New advances in medicine and technology continually change how clinicians treat patients with the aim of improving outcomes. As technology continues to improve, the ability to treat patients will improve as well. Great progress has been made in diabetic...
Abstract: Unsuccessful healing represents a significant medical dilemma for both patients and clinicians and create a financial burden on the health care system. Despite the efforts of physicians, many injuries fail to heal with standard care alone. For decades human...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been shown to be effective in the treatment of diabetic ulcers, air embolism, carbon monoxide poisoning and gas gangrene with minimal adverse effects. Very few cases of HBOT causing acute pulmonary edema (PE) has been...
Abstract: Diabetes mellitus is one of the leading public health problems in the world. Complications of diabetes mellitus include cardiovascular diseases, retinopathy, neuropathy and diabetic foot, which can in turn lead to lower extremity amputations. This is the...
Abstract: Uzun, Mutluoglu, Yildiz, , , , , , (). Appropriate analysis and presentation of data in wound healing studies: should we publish individual patient data? Wound repair and regeneration : official publication of the Wound Healing Society [and] the European...
Abstract: Diabetes is a complex disease with many serious potential sequelae, including large vessel arterial disease and microvascular dysfunction. Peripheral arterial disease is a common large vessel complication of diabetes, implicated in the development of tissue...
