Abstract: We investigated changes in the blood velocity of the ophthalmic artery to observe its relationship to the complication of diabetes mellitus before and after hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO). Color Doppler imaging (Toshiba, SSA-260A) was used. In this study,...
Abstract: Recent case reports have suggested that subarachnoid or epidural administration of local anesthetics may cause peripheral neurologic deficits. To describe the course and evaluate possible risk factors of such reactions, 21 reports in the Swedish adverse drug...
Abstract: 35 patients with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) were treated by hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) and caffetin preparation. A significant decrease of pain was observed in all the patients after the treatment course. Intensity of pain was diminished...
Abstract: To evaluate the effectiveness of systemic hyperbaric oxygen therapy (s HBOT) in addition to a comprehensive protocol in decreasing major amputation rate in diabetic patients hospitalized for severe foot ulcer. From August 1993 to August 1995, 70 diabetic...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) is currently being used in the treatment of nonhealing or "problem" wounds of the lower extremities. In an attempt to evaluate the efficacy of HBO in problem wounds, a retrospective study of the HBO experience at Orlando...

Abstract: Conclusive evidence for involvement of the peripheral nervous system in decompression illness is lacking. We report a case of decompression illness associated with shoulder pain and the clinical features of median nerve injury at the wrist. Initial...
Abstract: Oxygen environments were used to study the regenerative effects of hyperbaric oxygen on crushed sciatic nerves in 30 adult male rabbits. Six different oxygen environments were used, and treatments were initiated 4 days post injury. Transmission electron...
Abstract: Rat peroneal nerves were transected and entubulated with a Silastic channel. The experimental group was treated with hyperbaric oxygen to evaluate changes in acute edema, functional recovery, and histology. Hyperbaric oxygen was administered with 100% O2 at...
Abstract: Several cases have been reported recently in which symptoms suggestive of transient radicular irritation occurred following the use of hyperbaric 5% lignocaine for spinal anaesthesia. We report on three patients in whom we observed similar symptoms...
