Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Diabetes.
Abstract: Lower extremity ulcers (venous, diabetic) are often unresponsive to standard treatment. Various systemic and local cellular, vascular, and anatomical factors can result in nonhealing wounds that are refractory to normal healing processes and standard care....

Abstract: Systemic hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) is accomplished when a patient is breathing 100% oxygen in an environment with increased barometric pressure. A typical HBO treatment protocol of diabetic foot ulcer involves 20 to 40 sessions. Treatment is usually given as...
Abstract: Both negative wound pressure therapy (NPWT) and hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) are useful modalities in the treatment of problem wounds. However, none of the commercially available portable negative-pressure devices have been certified safe for use in a...
Abstract: To assess the reliability of cultures of superficial swabs (SS) by comparing them with cultures of concomitantly obtained deep tissue (DT) specimens in patients with diabetic foot ulcers. We reviewed clinical and microbiological data from patients with...
Abstract: Lower limb ulceration is a common problem in clinical practice. A variety of metabolic and physical causes can lead to a diversity of chronic ulcer types, including diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) and venous leg ulcers (VLUs). A wide variety of technologies have...
Abstract: Diabetes is associated with many hemorheological alterations. The decrease of RBC deformability, increase of aggregability, vasoconstriction, increase of blood viscosity and decrease of oxygen supply have a significant effect on wound healing, such as in...
