Hyperbaric Oxygenation in the Acute Stroke
نویسندگان
چکیده
Purpose Suggestive Clinical work and data in the literature are that hyperbaric oxygenation may play an integral role in the treatment of early stroke. In 1998, a special meeting was convened in Washington, DC, to review this possibility and to devise a protocol (1) for further evaluation of said therapy. An abbreviated protocol will be included in this paper along with a biostatical analysis of the 1980 Neubauer and End paper (2).

Mechanisms of action of hyperbaric oxygenation in stroke: a review.
This article outlines the therapeutic mechanisms of hyperbaric oxygenation in acute stroke, based on information obtained from peer-reviewed medical literature. Hyperbaric oxygen is an approved treatment modality for ischemia-reperfusion injury in several conditions. It maintains the viability of the marginal tissue, reduces the mitochondrial dysfunction, metabolic penumbra, and blocks inflamma...
متن کاملHyperbaric oxygenation as an adjunct therapy in strokes due to thrombosis. A review of 122 patients.
Results are reported using hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) in 122 patients with strokes due to thrombosis, both acute and completed. HBO is used as adjunctive treatment and three appears to be justification for a controlled study to delineate the treatment further. The authors believe it is essential to treat patients with stroke at 1.5 to 2 atmospheres absolute (ATA).

The 2008 Toronto Hyperbaric Medicine Symposium was convened to discuss research into neurologic indications for hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO2T). Four topics were particularly addressed: acute ischemic stroke; acute traumatic brain injury; brain radiation necrosis; and status migrainosus. Four multicenter trials were designed and proposed to evaluate the efficacy of HBO2T for these indications...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) has promise as a treatment for acute stroke. This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and feasibility of using HBO in acute ischemic stroke. METHODS We conducted a randomized, prospective, double-blind, sham-controlled pilot study of 33 patients presenting with acute ischemic stroke who did not receive thrombolytics over...
متن کاملNeuroprotection by oxygen in acute transient focal cerebral ischemia is dose dependent and shows superiority of hyperbaric oxygenation.
The neuroprotective effect of oxygen after acute stroke in rats has been shown previously. However, the question of optimal dosing still remains unanswered. Thus, we investigated the use of oxygen at different concentrations by either normobaric oxygenation (NBO) or hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) at different pressures in a model of transient ischemia/reperfusion in rats. Animals underwent 90 min...
