The Latest HBOT News & Research
Clinical Trial – Hemodynamic Impact of Hyperbaric Versus Isobaric for Spinal Anesthesia During Cesarean Delivery
The purpose of this study is to compare the frequency of hypotension between hyperbaric
anesthetics and isobaric anesthetics during cesarean section and determine whether continuous
infusion of phenylephrine is effective in mothers who received hyperbaric anesthetics.
Clinical Trial – Angiogenesis Induced in the Elderly by Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Recent studies show preliminary evidence of HBOT therapeutic effects on angiogenesis,
increased tissue blood flow and oxygenation correlated with tissue function.
Our primary hypothesis is that HBOT will have beneficial effects on the above mentioned
organs associated with aging-related malfunctions due to restored mitochondrial function,
mobilization of stem cells and induction of angiogenesis.
Clinical Trial – Isobaric Spinal Ropivacaine Versus Hyperbaric Spinal Bupivacaine in Total Knee Arthroplasty in Geriatric Patients
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of spinal anesthesia with
isobaric ropivacaine, compared with hyperbaric bupivacaine in geriatric patients undergoing
lower limb orthopedic surgery.
Treatment of pediatric cerebral radiation necrosis: a systematic review.
Abstract: Cerebral radiation necrosis (CRN) is a toxicity of radiation therapy that can result in significant, potentially life-threatening neurologic deficits. Treatment for CRN has included surgical resection, corticosteroids, hyperbaric oxygen...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for a refractory skin ulcer after radical mastectomy and radiation therapy: a case report.
Abstract: Radiation therapy is performed as an adjuvant therapy when indicated following surgical resection of malignant tumors. However, radiation exposure induces acute or chronic dermatitis, depending on the radiation dose, interval, tissue...

Intralesional application of epidermal growth factor in limb-threatening ischemic diabetic foot ulcers.
Abstract: The intralesional injection of recombinant human epidermal growth factor (EGF-IL), a new therapy, has been claimed to prevent major amputations in advanced diabetic foot lesions. In this study, the efficacy of EGF-IL on advanced diabetic...
