Hyperbaric Oxygen Preconditioning Attenuates Myocardium Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Through Upregulation of Heme Oxygenase 1 Expression: PI3K/Akt/Nrf2 Pathway Involved.
Abstract: With the rise of the burden of ischemic heart disease, both clinical and economic evidence show a desperate need to protect the heart against myocardium ischemia-reperfusion injury-related complications following cardiac surgery or percutaneous coronary...Predicting patients at risk of early postoperative adverse events.
Abstract: Adverse events after surgery are common. Identification of markers of at-risk patients may facilitate efficient and effective perioperative resource allocation. This pilot study aimed to identify simple preoperative factors associated with postoperative...Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for adult cardiovascular failure.
Abstract: To examine the utility and technical challenges of applying veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for acute cardiovascular failure in adults with acute and chronic causes of heart failure. The role of mechanical circulatory support in acute...Clinical Trial – Measurement of Endothelial Function With Peripheral Arterial Tonometry in Patients Undergoing Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
The purpose of this clinical study is to test whether or not patients treated with HBOT for
diabetic foot ulcers will demonstrate measurable changes of the blood vessel function during
the course of HBOT treatments. , i.e. an expected increase in the reactive hyperemic index
(RHI) measured by the peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT).
