Hyperbaric Oxygen and Radiotherapy
Strahlentherapie und Onkologie, 2005Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy is the inhalation of 100% oxygen at a pressure of at least 1.5 atmospheres absolute (150 kPa). It uses oxygen as a drug by dissolving it in the plasma and delivering it to the tissues independent of hemoglobin. For a variety of organ systems, HBO is known to promote new vessel growth into areas with reduced oxygen ...

Hyperbaric oxygen — 100 percent oxygen at two to three times the atmospheric pressure at sea level — can result in arterial oxygen tension in excess of 2000 mm Hg1 and oxygen tension in tissue of almost 400 mm Hg.2,3 Such doses of oxygen have a number of beneficial biochemical, cellular, and physiologic effects, and today there are 259 hyperbaric ...

Hyperbaric oxygen in neurosurgery
Acta Neurochirurgica, 2009The therapeutic use of pure oxygen, even under hyperbaric conditions, has been well established for about 50 years, whereas the discovery of oxygen occurred 250 years earlier. Many neurosurgical patients suffer from brain tissue damage, due to reduced blood flow, obstructive vessel disease, or as a result of traumatic brain injury.The application of ...

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) is the administration of 100 percent oxygen at greater than normal atmospheric pressure. It is administered in a hyperbaric chamber. It is the primary treatment modality for acute carbon monoxide poisoning, acute gas embolism, and decompression sickness and is used as adjunctive treatment for compromised skin grafts, gas

To the Editor.— The article by Heng et al 1 in the MayArchivesmakes me wonder what advantage there is to topical "hyperbaric" oxygen over simple topical ambient pressure oxygen (bag unpressurized). Henry's law states that the diffusion of a gas into a liquid (in this case, oxygen into the wound surface) is directly proportional to its partial pressure.

Cerebellum and hyperbaric oxygen
Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1968Abstract This research analyzed the role of the cerebellum in the mechanism of the start and development of hyperoxic seizures in unrestrained, unanesthetized rats. In a first group of animals the behavior of the electrical activity of the cerebellum during hyperbaric oxygen (5 atm. abs. for 2–4 h) was investigated.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy involves intermittent inhalation of 100% oxygen under a pressure greater than 1 atm. Despite over a century of use in medical settings, hyperbaric oxygen remains a controversial therapy. The last 20 years have seen a clarification of the mechanism of action of hyperbaric therapy and a greater understanding of its potential ...

Genotoxicity of hyperbaric oxygen
Mutation Research/Reviews in Mutation Research, 2002Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment is applied as a therapy for a wide variety of diseases with symptoms caused by lack of oxygen in the target tissues. However, it is known that exposure to high concentrations of oxygen may lead to oxidative stress and cause cell and tissue damage.
