Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Spinal Cord Injuries
Abstract: The bladder can be denervated at several levels: centrally, at the level of the sacral nerves; peripherally, on the pelvic nerves; or in the bladder, by cutting the relevant structures, by injecting substances toxic to nerves, or by hyperbaric bladder...
Abstract: To evaluate the results of treatment of nonclostridial gas gangrene at a Level 1 trauma center. Retrospective. Level 1 trauma center. Seven patients with nonclostridial gas gangrene were studied. The average age of all patients at the time of admission was...
Abstract Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating and common neurologic disorder that has profound influences on modern society from physical, psychosocial, and socioeconomic perspectives. Accordingly, the present decade has been labeled the Decade of the Spine to...
Abstract: Spinal cord ischemia sometimes causes paraplegia because the spinal motor neuron cells are vulnerable to ischemia. Although various protective remedies for spinal cord injury have been reported, there have been few established clinical methods. Although...
Abstract: To report the use of heparin and enoxaparin for radiation-induced myelopathy. A 48-year-old White woman with presumed metastatic lung cancer presented with worsening numbness and weakness of both legs. The neuro-oncology service was consulted and determined...
Abstract: The effectiveness of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) in predicting neurological recovery in patients with spinal cord injury was evaluated. HBO has been used to treat spinal cord injury, but HBO does not appear to greatly alter the neurological outcome. This...
Abstract: A retrospective study of spinal cord injury (SCI) treated with and without hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy. To report on the use of HBO in spinal cord injury. Neurosurgical Unit, Tokyo, Japan. Thirty-four cases of hyperextension spinal cord injury without...
Abstract: Acute spinal cord ischemic injury after resection of thoracoabdominal aneurysm remains a relatively common and potentially devastating complication. The complete resolution of postoperative paraplegia after resection of a type II thoracoabdominal aneurysm,...
