Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Diabetic Foot Ulcers
Abstract: This article reviews the essentials hyperbaric medicine. Specifically, we review the basic mechanism of action, the six most common indications for treatment, methods of accessing care, typical treatment concerns, and effectiveness of hyperbaric medicine....

Abstract: Oxygen is required for angiogenesis, collagen deposition, re-epithelialisation and oxidative killing of bacteria. This paper gives a brief overview of the evidence on the benefits of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in promoting wound healing. Kuffler, , , , , , ,...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy continues to be discussed as another adjunctive therapy in the continuum of wound care. There is a dearth of evidence from randomized clinical trials on HBO therapy. For evidence-based practice, more randomized, controlled studies...
Abstract: Testosterone has a modulating effect on inflammatory and healing processes. In this study, we evaluate whether hyperbaric oxygenation therapy (HOT) modifies the blood concentration of total testosterone (TT) in patients treated for different pathologies....
Abstract: Diabetes mellitus (DM) causes not only hyperglycemia but oxidative stress, resulting mainly enhanced production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS). Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatments are applied various diseases including diabetic patients with...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) involves inhalation of 100% oxygen at supra-atmospheric ambient pressure. HBOT is used as either a primary or adjunctive treatment in the management of infections such as gas gangrene, necrotizing fasciitis, diabetic foot...
Abstract: Subtalar arthrodesis was performed on a 48-year-old, non-insulin-dependent diabetic with a history of chronic ankle instability and lateral ankle pain. In the early post-operative period he presented as an emergency with an infection at the operative site....
Abstract: Creation of an hyperbaric medical center in Geneva allows development of elective indications of hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Physiologics effects of hyperbaric oxygen are well known, but credibles clinicals trials lacks. Frequents indications such as diabetic...
