Decompression illness

Lancet, The, 2011
Decompression illness is caused by intravascular or extravascular bubbles that are formed as a result of reduction in environmental pressure (decompression). The term covers both arterial gas embolism, in which alveolar gas or venous gas emboli (via cardiac shunts or via pulmonary vessels) are introduced into the arterial circulation, and decompression

Neurophysiological Recovery After Open Carpal Tunnel Decompression: Comparison of Simple Decompression and Decompression with Epineurotomy

open access: yesJournal of Hand Surgery, 2003
Two hundred and seventy-three patients with carpal tunnel syndrome without advanced neurophysiological changes (distal motor latency below 11 ms) were randomized to treatment by open carpal tunnel release with, or without, epineurotomy. Patients were examined clinically and by nerve conduction studies preoperatively and at 3, 6 and 12 months ...

Decompression and Decompression Sickness

Comprehensive Physiology, 2014
Abstract The ever‐present desire of humankind to explore new limits introduced us to the syndrome of decompression sickness (DCS). This broad overview of DCS is aimed at its pathophysiology and basics of therapeutic strategies. After a brief explanation of decompression theory, historical vignettes will serve to inform the practical ...

Microvascular Decompression

The Clinical Journal of Pain, 2002
Microvascular decompression (MVD) remains the only treatment of trigeminal neuralgia that directly addresses the presumed pathogenesis. It is a proven therapy, associated with the longest duration of pain relief while preserving facial sensation. The authors' premise for advocating early MVD is the belief that the disease's natural progression, in the ...

Decompressive Craniectomy

Neurocritical Care, 2008
Decompressive Craniectomy (DC) is used to treat elevated intracranial pressure that is unresponsive to conventional treatment modalities. The underlying cause of intracranial hypertension may vary and consequently there is a broad range of literature on the uses of this procedure.

Osteoplastic decompressive craniotomy—an alternative to decompressive craniectomy

Acta Neurochirurgica, 2011
In spite of various degrees of brain expansion, decompressive surgery is usually carried out using decompressive craniectomy (DC). After craniectomy it is necessary to perform cranioplasty, which prolongs hospitalization and is not always without complications.
