Abstract:
Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) increases oxygen supply to anoxic areas. To examine the therapeutic effect of HBO on ischemic stroke, we measured infarct volume as well as cerebral blood flow (CBF), oxygen supply, and lipid peroxidation in the ischemic periphery. Prospective experimental study in rats. Experimental laboratory in a university teaching hospital. Thirty-eight adult rats.
