Hyperbaric oxygen for acute carbon monoxide poisoning.

BACKGROUND Patients with acute carbon monoxide poisoning commonly have cognitive sequelae. We conducted a double-blind, randomized trial to evaluate the effect of hyperbaric-oxygen treatment on such cognitive sequelae. METHODS We randomly assigned patients with symptomatic acute carbon monoxide poisoning in equal proportions to three chamber sessions within a 24-hour period, consisting of eit...

Hyperbaric oxygen and carbon monoxide poisoning: a critical review.

CO is likely to be the most common cause of poisoning worldwide and often results in persistent neuropathologic and cognitive sequelae. While the displacement of oxygen from hemoglobin by CO has overshadowed the myriad mechanisms by which CO causes injury, mere oxygen displacement has endured as the etiology of CO poisonings and perpetuated a cascade of misdiagnosis, misunderstandings and confu...

Hyperbaric oxygen ameliorates delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome of carbon monoxide poisoning.

OBJECTIVES Delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome (DNS) is characterized by mental impairment, motor dysfunction, dementia, or psychosis that develops between a few days and weeks after acute carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. One possible mechanism responsible for CO-mediated encephalopathy involves oxidative stress, such as lipid peroxidation, caused by the cellular uptake of CO and which leads to an...

Severe carbon monoxide poisoning: outcome after hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

This paper reports the outcome after carbon monoxide poisoning in 31 consecutive patients treated with mechanical ventilation and hyperbaric oxygen therapy, compared with another study of mechanically ventilated patients treated with normobaric oxygen. We found 16.1% hospital mortality and 3.8% severe short-term memory loss, compared with 30% hospital mortality and 20% incidence of serious neur...
