Abstract: Increased complications following failed hypospadias repairs suggest impaired wound healing is a contributing factor. We used perioperative hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to promote wound healing determined by graft take in staged tubularized autograft...
Abstract: Loss of vision is an extremely rare and unexpected complication following a routine uncomplicated nasal surgery. In majority of patients, visual loss has attributed to retinal emboli which occur with retrograde flow of the intra-arterially injected agents...
Patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) suffer from diabetes-related complications and comor-bidities. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a treatment modality with limited capacity used in the treatment of DFUs. It is important to ensure that HBOT is offered to patients who are suitable for this treatment regarding effect, compliance and life expectancy. The objective of the present study was to describe the population of patients with DFU who were referred to HBOT in Denmark in the 1999-2016 period. All patients with DFU who were treated at the HBOT chamber in Copenhagen during the study period were considered. Patients with an invalid social security number or an incorrect diagnosis were excluded. Data on comor-bidities, amputation and death were extracted from the Danish National patient Registry and the Danish Civil Registration System.
Abstract: The aim of the study was to assess netrin-1 levels in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning to determine its relationship with poisoning severity and neurotoxicity. This is a cross-sectional prospective study. The patients older than 18 years with CO poisoning were...
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of keeping the patient in a sitting position
for 1 minute after spinal anaesthesia in elective caesarean operations, primarily on the
formation of hypotension and secondarily on nausea-vomiting, the need for ephedrine and the
block characteristics.
There is reason to believe that hyperbaric oxygen administered immediately prior to
radiotherapy will prove beneficial for this cancer type and stage. The basis for this
hypothesis is a review of several decades of published work, the conclusion of a recent
(2018) Cochrane Review, and results of a Phase I trial.
Comparison between prophylactic continuous variable infusion of phenylephrine (starting dose
0,5mcg/kg/min) and norepinephrine tartrate (starting dose 0,1mcg/kg/min) to prevent
hypotension and maintain cardiac output under spinal anesthesia during cesarean delivery.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of hyperbaric 5 mg bupivacaine + fentanyl 25 mcg
versus hyperbaric 7.5 mg bupivacaine + fentanyl 25 mcg to lower incidence of hypotension
Abstract: Acute carbon monoxide poisoning is a common environmental emergency worldwide. Treatment options are limited to normobaric oxygen therapy with a nonrebreather face mask or endotracheal tube and hyperbaric oxygen. The aim of this study is to determine the...
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Perianal fistulizing Crohn's disease (pCD) has a significant impact on patients' health and quality of life. Current treatment options have a relatively low success rate and a high recurrence risk. Positive effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2)...
