The Latest HBOT News & Research
Clinical Trial – HBOT Application in Erectile Dysfunction
Recent studies have shown that hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) can induce angiogenesis and
improve impaired organ function. HBOT was also recently suggested as a possible therapy for
ED due to surgical injuries. However, the effect of HBOT on non-surgical related ED has not
been investigated to date.
The objective in this study was to assess the effect of HBOT on patients with ED by means of
sexual function questionnaires and novel imaging techniques.
Understanding the pathology and treatment of traumatic brain injury and posttraumatic stress disorder: a therapeutic role for hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an intracranial injury caused by external trauma leading to different degrees of brain damage. TBI can cause a wide array of symptoms and range in severity from concussion to coma and death. The link...
Effect of Hyperbaric Oxygen on the Growth of Intracranial Glioma in Rats.
Abstract: Numerous studies have confirmed that hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) in combination with radiotherapy or chemotherapy may increase the efficacy of radiotherapy or chemotherapy in patients with glioma. However, whether HBO therapy alone may...
Genetic and molecular basis of diabetic foot ulcers: Clinical review.
Abstract: Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFUs) are major complications associated with diabetes and often correlate with peripheral neuropathy, trauma and peripheral vascular disease. It is necessary to understand the molecular and genetic basis of diabetic...

Clinical Trial – Effect of Spinal Dexamethasone During Transuretheral Prostatectomy
Dexamethasone, a high-potency, long-acting glucocorticoid, when added to bupivacaine, it
extended the duration of analgesia. We aim to study the effectiveness of spinal dexamethasone
in Transuretheral prostatectomy.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy combined with Schwann cell transplantation promotes spinal cord injury recovery.
Abstract: Schwann cell transplantation and hyperbaric oxygen therapy each promote recovery from spinal cord injury, but it remains unclear whether their combination improves therapeutic results more than monotherapy. To investigate this, we used...
Necrotising soft tissue infections: the effect of hyperbaric oxygen on mortality.
Abstract: In a single-centre, retrospective, case-controlled study of patients attending the Alfred Hospital in Prahran, Victoria, we assessed the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in reducing mortality or morbidity in patients with...
