Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for acute coronary syndrome.
Abstract: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS), includes acute myocardial infarction and unstable angina, is common and may prove fatal. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) will improve oxygen supply to the threatened heart and may reduce the volume of heart muscle that...
The Use of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in the Treatment of Non-healing Ulcers Secondary to Graft-versus-host Disease.
Abstract: We present the case of a 69 year-old gentleman with non-healing ulcers of the bilateral medial malleoli as a result of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). The patient discussed was diagnosed with stage IV mantle cell lymphoma. Over the course of 4 years the...
Topical Oxygen for Chronic Wounds: A PRO/CON Debate.
Abstract: The role of oxygen in wound healing is universally accepted and does not require any further evidence; however the controversy as to whether oxygen delivery systems have the potential to improve wound healing remains to be concluded. Topical oxygen treatment...
Pitfalls of Intralesional Ozone Injection in Diabetic Foot Ulcers: A Case Study.
Abstract: Although the history of ozone therapy dates back to the 19th century, its use has shown a rapid growth of interest in recent decades. Intralesional ozone injection is seldom performed and its safety has not yet been reliably assessed for the treatment of...
Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment Protects Against Spinal Cord Injury by Inhibiting Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Rats.
Abstract: Experimental animal study of treatment of SCI. To explore whether HBO treatment protects against secondary SCI by inhibiting the ER stress response. SCI is a neurological disorder that can severely limit the execution of the simplest day-to-day functions. ER...
