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 – Comparative Study of the Analgesic Effect of Spinal Anesthesia or Infiltration Anesthesia for Hemorrhoidectomy

Background and Objectives: Postoperative analgesia and early recovery are relevant for
hospital discharge after hemorrhoidectomy. This study investigated the postoperative
analgesic effect with local infiltration compared with spinal block.

Methods: This randomized study included 40 patients aged 18 to 60 years old. Local group (LG)
received local infiltration under general anaesthesia; spinal group (SG) received a
subarachnoid block. LG received general anaesthesia with propofol, atracurium and propofol
infusion as well as a local infiltration of 20 ml 0.75% ropivacaine. SG received 2 ml of 0.5%
hyperbaric bupivacaine. Analgesic supplementation was with 50µg of fentanyl for LG and 1%
lidocaine for SG. There were assessed: postoperative pain intensity, sphincter relaxation,
motor blockade of lower limbs, time to discharge, analgesic dose over 1 week and adverse
effects.

Clinical Trial – Spinal Anesthesia Associated With General Anesthesia in Coronary Artery Bypass

CONTEXT: In patients eligible for coronary artery bypass surgery, anesthesia should provide a
number of conditions that exceed the limits of cardiovascular stability, myocardial
protection and other organs. Moreover, the combination of general anesthesia and spinal
anesthesia lessens the homeostatic, metabolic, hormonal and immunosuppressive changes. The
goal of this research was to evaluate the consumption of fentanyl citrate in intra-operative
in Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass under spinal
anesthesia associated with general anesthesia.

METHODS: Clinical, prospective, randomized and double covered study, approved by the Research
Ethics Committee. Fifty-six patients candidates for CABG with CPB, after signing the Terms of
consent, were randomized and divided into two groups: GI – General and GII – General +
subarachnoid. General anesthesia was induced according to the weight of each patient and
maintenance with isoflurane and fentanyl. Spinal anesthesia was induced with 20 mg of 0.5%
hyperbaric bupivacaine and 200 mcg of morphine, the patient is placed in cephalo-position
slope of 45 degrees for 10 minutes in Group II. In the statistical study was performed using
the Mann-Whitney test; the level of statistical significance was set at 5%.
