HBO Effect

Dual effect of HBO on cerebral infarction in MCAO rats.

Various reports in the literature have shown that hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) reduces cerebral infarction both in animals and humans. After the initial ischemic insult, however, initiating HBO treatment at different intervals has yielded conflicting results. The present study was undertaken to determine the optimal therapeutic window in which to start HBO treatment for cerebral infarction after tra...

HBO and gas gangrene. A case report.

A 58-year old man, in a mediocre health condition, was admitted into Landspitallin Fossvogur, the University of Reykjavik City Hospital, Iceland, because of fever, chills, local pain and swelling due to the presence of a big old wound in his left heel. The first clinical appearance showed a gas gangrene of the area. The patient immediately underwent a surgical debridement and a fasciotomy, and ...

Are HBO and BOH electronically stable?

The binding of an excess electron to HBO and BOH was studied at the coupled cluster level of theory with single, double and non-iterative triple excitations and with extended basis sets to accommodate the loosely bound excess electron. The bent BOH molecule, with a dipole moment of 2.803D, binds an electron by 39 cm , whereas the linear HBO tautomer possesses a similar dipole moment (2.796D) ye...
