Abstract: Carbon monoxide (CO) intoxication is a leading cause of severe neuropsychological impairments. Peripheral nerve injury has rarely been reported. It consists usually in a demyelinating polyneuropathy or mononeuropathy affecting mainly the lower limbs....
Abstract: To examine the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to treat people with diabetes mellitus (DM) and non-healing ulcers. This policy appraisal systematically reviews the published literature in the above patient population,...
Abstract: Neurological deficits occurring after diving or hyperbaric exposure are typically due to central nervous system decompression illness (DCI). However, consideration of alternate diagnoses is sometimes warranted. A 47-yr-old female hyperbaric technician...
Abstract: Diabetes is a cardiovascular disease affecting almost every arterial vascular bed with significant consequences. Vascular disease is one part of a triopathy of complications that singularly but most commonly in combination makes the diabetic patient uniquely...

Abstract: Neuropathic pain after nerve injury is severe and intractable, and current drug and non-drug therapies offer very limited pain relief. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO 2) has been clinically used for protection of the nervous system after acute injury. We investigated...
Abstract: Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder resulting in a multiple-system disorder with a wide spectrum of physical signs and symptoms, predominantly affecting the central and peripheral nervous systems, skin, heart, kidneys, and eyes. We...
Abstract: After a peripheral nerve cut, tense repair of a nerve compromises circulation of the nerve at the injury site, making the site hypoxic. Hyperbaric oxygen might increase tissue oxygenation and therefore diminish the effects of injury. We investigated whether...
