HBOT Conversations:
Dr. Paul Harch & 8,101 Genes

Dr. Paul G. Harch, M.D. has used hyperbaric oxygen therapy to treat more than 100 different conditions, including stroke, dementia, autism, and traumatic brain injury. His goal is to help his patients get their lives back using hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

He is the author of The Oxygen Revolution and is considered an International expert and pioneer in the field of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT). His informative, and comprehensive guide on HBOT has helped countless souls better understand what HBOT is and how it directly affects the body at the genetic level.

This episode on 8,101 genes is the eighth in a nine episode series that will be released weekly with Dr. Harch.

In episode 8 of 9, host Edward di Girolamo speaks with world renowned HBOT expert, Dr. Paul G. Harch, about aging and the 8,101 genes HBOT affects.

di Girolamo starts this conversation with Dr. Harch bringing up the 8,101 genes that are activated by Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy.  The discussion leads to talk of Big Pharma, telomeres, reparative gene process, patents, and successful business models for HBOT clinics.

Dr. Harch explains that Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy affects 8,101 of our genes, and it’s doing so on a different level for the ones that are overactive and abnormal in the disease process. He speaks of a 2004 lecture he gave to A4M about the effects of HBOT on longevity; and asks, “Where is senescence and aging based?”, answering with, “It’s in our DNA”. Dr. Harch dives in to how HBOT turns on our genes to grow new tissue and stimulates cellular repair and regeneration. di Girolamo agrees and brings up a different past lecture from Dr. Harch where Harch referred to Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy as the ‘Fountain of Youth‘.

This series ends with Dr. Harch discussing a Buffalo VA study, and how the study subjects (comprised of older veterans) literally came alive and started propositioning nurses after Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy treatments. He explained this is why no follow-up study was ever done because they weren’t expecting such and didn’t know what to do. Makes sense…. studies have shown success in HBOT treating erectile dysfunction.

Dr. Paul G. Harch, MD

Dr. Paul G. Harch, M.D. is a clinician in emergency medicine and hyperbaric medicine who is the former director of the University Medical Center Hyperbaric Medicine Department and LSU Hyperbaric Medicine Fellowship. Currently, he is a Clinical Professor of Medicine in the Section of Emergency Medicine at LSU School of Medicine in New Orleans. He graduated from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine after graduating from the University of California at Irvine with magna cum laude/Phi Beta Kappa honors.

Dr. Harch initiated and continues to be a private practice that has resulted in the largest case experience in neurological hyperbaric medicine in the world. In this practice, he adapted the concepts of conventional hyperbaric oxygen therapy to wounds in the central nervous system, which spawned the subsequent academic and research practice. Harch HBOT is the best place to receive oxygen therapy treatments, and patients have traveled from more than 50 countries to be treated by Dr. Harch himself.

Clinical Trial – Influence of Injection Rate of Intrathecal Mixture of Local Anesthesia on Hypotension in Cesarean Section

Hypotension is the most common complication of neuraxial anesthesia in obstetric patients and
its prevalence in cesarean section is about 50-90%. Maternal hypotension causes unpleasant
symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, loss of consciousness, respiratory depression, and cardiac
arrest. Hypotension may reduce placental perfusion and result in fetal acidosis and
neurological injury. Several techniques have been proposed to prevent hypotension.

The recommended spinal block height to ensure patient comfort for Cesarean delivery is T4-6.
Clinically, it is desirable that the spread of local anesthetic through the cerebrospinal
fluid (CSF) achieves a sensory level no higher than the T4 dermatome to avoid extensive
sympathetic block. It is also important that the spinal block level be no lower than T6 to
avoid patient discomfort during peritoneal manipulation and uterine exteriorization. The
effect of injection speed on spread of spinal anesthesia is controversial. Several studies
have demonstrated more extensive spread with faster injection while others report either
greater spread with slower injection, or no difference. Slow injection of hyperbaric
bupivacaine 10 mg over 60 and 120 sec has been shown to reduce the incidence and severity of
hypotension during Cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia.

Clinical Trial – Enhanced Recovery After Surgery for Emergency Caesarean Deliveries

Caesarean section (CS) constitutes a large proportion of the total surgical volume in
low-income countries. This rate comes with challenges including surgical complications,
shortage of beds, and consequently long waiting time for operations and high costs. These
have led to the adoption of ERAS in developed countries in a bid to save costs by reducing
hospital length of stay without compromising the health of the mother and her baby.
