Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
The rising prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has increased the need for evidence-based treatments to lessen the impact of symptoms. Presently, no therapies are available to effectively treat individuals with all of the symptoms of this disorder. It has been suggested that hyperbaric oxygen therapy may alleviate the biochemical dysfunction and clinical symptoms of ASD. To determine whether treatment with hyperbaric oxygen:1. improves core symptoms of ASD, including social communication problems and stereotypical and repetitive behaviors;2. improves noncore symptoms of ASD, such as challenging behaviors;3. improves comorbid states, such as depression and anxiety; and4. causes adverse effects.
Clinical Trial – Isobaric Spinal Ropivacaine Versus Hyperbaric Spinal Bupivacaine in Total Knee Arthroplasty in Geriatric Patients
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of spinal anesthesia with
isobaric ropivacaine, compared with hyperbaric bupivacaine in geriatric patients undergoing
lower limb orthopedic surgery.
