Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Stroke
Abstract: In the present study, we observed the haemodynamic changes, using echocardiography and Doppler, in ten healthy volunteers during 6 h of compression in a hyperbaric chamber with a protocol designed to reproduce the conditions as near as possible to a real...
Abstract: 1. There is evidence that hydroxyl radicals are accumulated and oxidative stress is produced in multiple organs, including the brain, of rats with heat stroke. Herein, we investigated the effect on heat stroke-induced circulatory shock and cerebral ischaemic...
Abstract: Angiographic, CT and MR findings, precipitating factors, and clinical features of spontaneous intracranial internal carotid artery dissection, in particular the terminal segment of the ICA, are described. Patients who had a possible posttraumatic dissection...
Abstract: Barotrauma is pressure-induced injury. The application of direct pressure to the body may cause trauma, including positive pressure from artificial ventilation. Trauma may also be caused by the effects of pressure changes on gas-containing body spaces, not...

Abstract: EXCERPT: Early detection of perioperative stroke is essential if there is to be any opportunity to improve outcome. If there is suspicion of cerebral embolic stroke, scanning with computerized tomography can rule out acute hemorrhage and demonstrate...
Abstract: The diagnosis and treatment of vascular dementia (VaD) are particularly challenging because of its multiple causal lesions and the variety of its clinical presentations. Even poststroke dementia cases may be due to preexisting Alzheimer's disease. Diagnostic...
Abstract: The hypothesis was tested that hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) reduced brain infarction by preventing apoptotic death in ischemic cortex in a rat model of focal cerebral ischemia. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to middle cerebral artery...
