HBOT Conversations:
Dr. Peter Canaday (Part 2)
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 Network welcomes Dr. Peter Canaday.
This is Part 2 of Conversations with Dr. Peter Canaday. Part 1 can be viewed here. 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 continues the discussion on COVID-19 vaccines and the suppression of medical data. di Girolamon asks the question, “where do we go from here?”. Dr. Canaday explains that Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is one of the most exciting things that has piqued his interest in the medical field. He explains that huge numbers are really starting to be revealed of people who have been negatively affected by COVID, either from the point of long-COVID or from a vaccine injury; and Hyperbaric Oxygen could be potentially very helpful to this population, as it is a natural therapy involving oxygen and pressure that upregulates the anti-inflammatory gene and down regulates the inflammatory gene.
However, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy threatens the pharmaceutical companies bottom line and when that happens we all start to see some pretty disturbing things start surfacing — such as the science being buried, fake studies being published showing HBOT to be ineffective, major medical Journals rejecting scientific articles outlining all the adverse affects from the vaccine.
The spirit of humanity needs to be embraced here, and it is not.
Dr. Canaday encourages viewers to learn more at www.nzdsos.com — it’s “New Zealand Doctors Speaking Out with Science“. The NZDSOS is very similar to America’s Frontline Doctors and there is a plethora of educational information that can be learned regarding what happened during the COVID-19 pandemic and is still happening today. Dr. Canaday further encourages us all to open our eyes, hearts and ears as we listen and digest to all of this information. Often times, it’s when doctors keep getting shut down and censored that we all need to be listening closer instead of turning the other cheek.
Dr. Canaday and di Girolamo stresses that everyone should be looking into the God-given miracle of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. Be sure to find a treatment center near you if you are experiencing effects of long-COVID or a vaccine injury.

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 – the Use of Magnesium Sulfate for Prevention of Postspinal Shivering
Shivering is an unpleasant experience after spinal anesthesia. Shivering is defined as an
involuntary, repetitive activity of skeletal muscles. The mechanisms of shivering in patients
undergoing surgery are mainly intraoperative heat loss, increased sympathetic tone, pain, and
systemic release of pyrogens. Spinal anesthesia significantly impairs the thermoregulation
system by inhibiting tonic vasoconstriction, which plays a significant role in temperature
regulation. Spinal anesthesia also causes redistribution of core heat from the trunk (below
the block level) to the peripheral tissues. These two effects predispose patients to
hypothermia and shivering. The median incidence of shivering related to regional anesthesia
observed in a review of 21 studies is 55%. Shivering increases oxygen consumption, lactic
acidosis, carbon dioxide production, and metabolic rate by up to 400%. Therefore, shivering
may cause problems in patients with low cardiac and pulmonary reserves. The best way to avoid
these intraoperative and postoperative shivering-induced increases in hemodynamic and
metabolic demands is to prevent shivering in the first place. Although magnesium is among
several pharmacological agents used for the treatment of shivering, its effects on prevention
of shivering during central neuraxial blockade have not been evaluated to date. Henceforth,
the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of magnesiume on shivering during spinal
anesthesia.
Aim:
to compare the efficacy of intravenous versus intrathecal magnesium sulphate for prevention
of post spinal shivering in adult patients undergoing elective lower limb orthopedic
surgeries.
Clinical Trial – Comparing the Effects of Levobupivacaine and Bupivacaine in Saddle Spinal Anesthesia
İn this study; it was aimed to investigate the effects of equipotent doses of hyperbaric
bupivacaine and hyperbaric levobupivacaine in outpatient anorectal surgery under saddle
block. Sixty patients between the age of 18- 50 and in the risk group of ASA I-II included in
the study. 7,5 mg of 0,5% hyperbaric bupivacaine or 7,5 mg of 0,5% hyperbaric levobupivacaine
injected into the intrathecal space in sitting position through L4-L5 or L5-S1 intervertebral
space in 30 seconds. All patients kept in sitting position for 5 minutes with aid after
intrathecal injection and than layed in supine position, finally they positioned in prone
jack-knife. Hemodynamic parameters like NIBP, HR, SpO2, sensory and motor block
characteristics, duration of analgesia, time of first voiding, mobilization time, patient and
surgeon satisfaction, adverse effects and discharge time were recorded during and after
surgery.
