HBOT Conversations:
Dr. Peter Canaday (Part 1)
Dr. Peter Canaday has published work in Applied Physiology, Respiratory Medicine, and Diagnostic Radiology. He has presented at National (USA) and International meetings, and his research supported the eventual FDA approval of a new medical imaging device incorporating digital X-ray tomosynthesis. He has sat on National, State, and Local advisory committees, and given testimony at the State Legislative level in the USA.
Dr. Canaday’s experience with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy dates back to the 1980s when he studied HBOT under Dr. Eric Kindwall, “The Father of Hyperbaric Medicine”. Dr. Canaday also co-founded the Hyperbaric Medicine Department at St. Anthony Hospital in Lakewood, Colorado.
From 2007, Dr. Canaday spent time in community radiology practices before settling in New Zealand in 2013 as a Consultant Radiologist. Since 2016, he was employed at a Midlands region DHB and served as Head of Department before retiring in March 2021.

HBOT News welcomes Dr. Peter Canaday. Dr. Canaday now lives primarily in New Zealand, but his history with medicine and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy dates back over 40 years to the United States.
In this HBOT News Network Conversations, Dr. Canaday spends the first several minutes providing listeners with his biography and medical background. He also dives into his experience with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in the 1980s.
The subject of PTSD and recent Hyperbaric research arises, and Dr. Canaday expands on the topic by referencing two research articles from Dr. Paul G. Harch –
Dr. Canaday further explains, “There is a recruitment of the anti-inflammatory enzymes and a suppression of the pro-inflammatory enzymes that can be achieved through even these lower pressure units. And so we’re beginning to see now the potential mechanism for which Hyperbaric Therapy, whether with or without oxygen, may be effective.”
The remainder of this HBOT News Conversation is specific to the topic of COVID-19. di Girolamo starts the conversation discussing the struggles for long-hauler COVID patients and the growing number of vaccine injuries as a result of the COVID-19 vaccine. Dr. Canaday agrees that the scientific inquiry for COVID-19 and the available information for associated vaccines has been widely suppressed. He continues that even the data which represent conclusions from peer-reviewed literature has been simply ignored, or set aside without discussion.
In response, Dr. Canaday provides viewers with direct links on how they can learn more about some of the data and information he’s shared with the public regarding the COVID-19 vaccine roll-outs:

Guest
Dr. Peter Canaday
Following completion of medical school at the University of Massachusetts in 1976, Dr. Peter Canaday took up training as an Internal Medicine specialist at the University of Michigan, followed by sub-specialist training in Respiratory and Intensive Care at the University of North Carolina. He began his medical career in a busy trauma hospital in Denver, Colorado in 1981 and practiced for 12 years. During his time there, he managed many of the types of patients now seen with severe COVID-19, co-founded a sleep disorders laboratory and a hyperbaric medicine department. As well, he participated in a dozen committee assignments, and rose to Chairman of the Department of Internal Medicine. In 1993, Dr Canaday changed career and completed training as a Radiologist at the University of Wisconsin in 1997. During an 8-year period at Creighton University Medical School in Nebraska, he became tenured as an Assistant Professor of Radiology, and head of the section of Pulmonary Radiology. He also served on or chaired over a dozen hospital and medical school committees and was appointed Clinical Coordinator for the Radiology Department during his time there. Dr Canaday has also published work in applied physiology, respiratory medicine, and diagnostic radiology, has presented at national (USA) and international meetings, and his research supported the eventual FDA approval of a new medical imaging device incorporating digital X-ray tomosynthesis. He has sat on national, state, and local level advisory committees and given testimony at the state legislative level in the USA. From 2007, Dr Canaday spent time in community radiology practices before settling in New Zealand in 2013 as a Consultant Radiologist. Since 2016, he was employed at the Taranaki District Health Board and served as Head of Department before retiring in March 2021.

Clinical Trial – Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Effect on Post Concussion Syndrome in Children
Due its high incidence, mTBI and its consequences of PPCS are a major public health issue.
There is no consensus regarding the treatment of PPCS in pediatrics. Relying on its results
in adults, HBOT offers a promising new direction of treatment, which targets the basic
pathological processes responsible for post-concussion symptoms.
The effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in pediatric TBI has never been evaluated.
The aim of the current study is to evaluate in a prospective cross-over, randomized study,
the effect of HBOT on children with PPCS due to mild TBI.
Clinical Trial – Observational Follow-up to ST-001 Calciphylaxis Pain Treatment With Intravenous Sodium Thiosulfate
This is an 8-week observational follow-up study of patients who participated in the ST-001
CALISTA study (A Phase 3, Intravenous Sodium Thiosulfate for Acute Calciphylaxis Treatment: A
Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Clinical Trial).
Hyperbaric oxygen ameliorated the lesion scope and nerve function in acute spinal cord injury patients: A retrospective study.
This is a retrospective study to assess the therapeutic effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) in early treatment of acute spinal cord injury (SCI) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and electrophysiology in diagnosing. Forty acute SCI patients from Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital who were assigned into HBO treatment were included during August 2013 to October 2014.The patients with adverse reactions or contraindications for HBO were assigned as controls. Both of two groups (HBO and Control) received medicine treatment with Urbason, GM-1 and mecobalamine after surgery. ASIA and the Frankel scores were used to evaluate the therapeutic effect of HBO at the 15th and 30th day after HBO treatment by using MRI and electrophysiology features. Significant therapeutic effect of HBO treatment on acute SCI patients was observed compared with the control group (P<0.05). Comparison for ASIA and Frankel scores showed that motor and neurological functions were significantly improved in HBO group at day 15 and day 30 post treatment. MRI images showed that the grade III injury in HBO group was significant lower than the control group. In comparison with the control, the peak of somatosensory evoked potential (SEP) and motor evoked potential (MEP) amplitude increased, the latency was shortened, and the conduction velocity of sensory nerve (SCV) and motor nerve (MCV) was significantly increased in the HBO group (P<0.05). HBO treatment has a great efficacy in acute SCI patients. HBO therapy at early stage of acute SCI is beneficiary to the recovery.
