HBOT Conversations:
Dr. Paul Harch & 8,101 Genes
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. 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 – Dose and Response of Intrathecal Hydromorphone in Patients Undergoing Cesarean Section at Virginia Commonwealth University Health System
In the United States the incidence of cesarean deliveries have increased over the last
several decades and is currently approximately 30% nationwide. The anesthesia and analgesia
for elective c-sections vary between institutions.
Parturients present a unique challenge for the anesthesiologist as the mother has to care not
only for herself, but also for the newborn postpartum. While intrathecal opioids provide
adequate pain relief, they do so at the cost of bothersome side effects for patients, such as
pruritus and nausea/vomiting.
Intrathecal hydromorphone has started to be explored as a new option for intrathecal
analgesia. A study done by Beatty et al. showed in a retrospective review that 40 mcg of
intrathecal dilaudid was safe and effective as compared to intrathecal morphine for analgesia
after cesarean delivery. Additionally they showed no difference in side effect profiles of
the two medications. Mhyre et al. investigated the use of 100 mcg of intrathecal dilaudid
with hyperbaric bupivacaine in varying dosages for labor analgesia. The results were
inconclusive, but the dosage of hydromorphone was reported to be without adverse effects.
Virginia Commonwealth University Health Systems has successfully instituted the use of
intrathecal morphine with superior analgesia but with undesired side effects, most notably
pruritus. Recent drug shortages of duramorph have prompted investigators to seek alternative
options for post cesarean section analgesia. The investigators are interested in determining
the dose, efficacy, and side effect profile of intrathecal hydromorphone. Although our
institution has never utilized intrathecal hydromorphone for our patient population, it has
been studied at various other institutions where it has been found to be safe and efficacious
with an acceptable side effect profile.
Repeat spinal anesthesia in cesarean section: A comparison between 10 mg and 12 mg doses of intrathecal hyperbaric (0.05%) bupivacaine repeated after failed spinal anesthesia: A prospective, parallel group study.
Abstract: Spinal anesthesia for cesarean section is not a 100% successful technique. At times, despite straightforward insertion and drug administration, intrathecal anesthesia for cesarean section fails to obtain any sensory or motor block. Very few studies and...
Endocan reduces the malign grade of gastric cancer cells by regulating associated protein expression.
Abstract: Endocan, which has been identified to be low expressed in gastric cancer, was found to be positively related to the differentiation level of gastric cancer in vivo and in vitro. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the role of endocan in gastric...
