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.

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 – Spinal Marginally Hyperbaric Ropivacaine for Cesarean Delivery
BACKGROUND: One previous study has confirmed that the marginally hyperbaric solutions of
bupivacaine can maintain good quality of anesthesia and get a more steadily hemodynamic
status than commonly hyperbaric solutions, some authors confirmed the plain ropivacaine for
cesarean section have a higher failure rate and commonly hyperbaric solutions of ropivacaine
have a higher incidence of side reaction. It is unclear what the efficacy of spinal
marginally hyperbaric ropivacaine for elective cesarean delivery.We hypothesized that the
marginally hyperbaric ropivacaine will get a similar efficacy to commonly hyperbaric
solutions but a more steadily hemodynamic status.
OBJECTIVE In this prospective, randomized, double-blinded study, Investigator will compare
the clinical efficacy and adverse effect of spinal anesthesia with commonly hyperbaric and
marginally hyperbaric ropivacaine for elective cesarean delivery.
Main outcome measures: The maximum cephalad sensory block level; the change of continuous
cerebral oxygen desaturation (ScO2) over time; the incidence of hypotension and nausea and
vomiting; the change of invasive arterial pressure; the consumption of ephedrine; the
incidence of shivering; the onset time to T8 dermatome; the quality of anesthesia (efficacy
of motor block and sensory block)
Clinical Trial – Comparison of Regional Anesthesia Techniques After Total Knee Arthroplasty
Comparison of continuous adductor canal block to continuous femoral nerve block in patients
after total knee arthroplasty.
All patients will be anesthetized with spinal anesthesia. Continuous infusion of ropivacaine
with a catheter implemented to the adductor canal or next to the femoral nerve.
The observed goals: pain intensity, the beginning and quality of rehabilitation.
