Filter by:The purpose of CARE-HBOT study is to evaluate whether patients with symptomatic severe carotid artery stenosis with cognitive impairment who underwent hyperbaric oxygen therapy plus standard medical treatment after stent implantation could improve their cognitive function compared with those who underwent standard postoperative medical treatment.
This is a randomised, controlled, double-blind, placebo trial of HBOT (intervention) superiority in the treatment of VOC in SCD, to demonstrate the effectiveness of HBOT for the decrease in pain level in the treatment of SCD-VOC.
Abnormal gait is a common issue in children with CP. As a result of motor weakness and a lack of voluntary motor control. Furthermore, gait in children with cerebral palsy is characterized by a slower walking speed, a shorter stride length, and more time spent in double support. Deficits in postural control constitute a major limitation to the motor development in children with CP. The performance of static and dynamic tasks, such as sitting, standing, and walking, is limited in these children due to postural instability. Postural control deficits in CP are caused by altered sensory processing, motor impairment, and biomechanical alignment, which result in altered neuromuscular responses. HBO2 therapeutic benefits in CP are attributed to an increase in dissolved oxygen in plasma and tissue, which aids tissue regeneration, So, the purpose of this study was to investigate the long-term effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on spatiotemporal gait parameters and functional balance skills in children with CP.
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is a potentially curative therapeutic strategy for patients with hematopoietic malignancies. However, the therapeutic benefits and wider application of allo-HSCT are limited by acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), the latter remains a major obstacle against long-term survival for this population. New aGVHD prophylactic and therapeutic strategies that are superior in efficacy, safety, cost-effectiveness, and less technically demanding are still in desperate need. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been confirmed as an effective and economical therapeutic modality for hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) whether induced by infection or acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) for transplant recipients. However, little is known about its involvement in aGVHD. In this study, the investigators designed a randomized, controlled, and open clinical trial to confirm the safety and efficacy of HBOT on aGVHD in patient underwent allo-HSCT.
The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of hyperbaric oxygen therapy plus Camrelizumab as a second-line treatment in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma who have failed at least 1 previous treatment.
To investigate the evidence for the integration of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) as part of interdisciplinary stroke rehabilitation.
The aim of the current study was to examine the effect of short-term HBOT (hyperbaric oxygen treatments) on a range of cognitive abilities. The current study examined whether there is a HBOT-related short-term cognitive improvement and, if so, what specific cognitive abilities are improved by the intervention. Participants were randomized to perform cognitive tasks in one of two chambers with two different clinical environments: (a) HBOT condition: (2 ATA (atmosphere absolute) 100% oxygen for 90 minutes). (b) Control condition: in which the chamber was not pressurized (Normobaric condition- 1 ATA for 90 minutes).
Middle ear barotrauma (MEB) is the most common complication during hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). Though Valsalva and Toynbee maneuvers have been proposed to prevent MEB, still some patients discontinue HBOT due to severe otalgia, hemorrhage or perforation of tympanic membrane associated with HBOT. Currently, there is no optimal prophylactic management for MEB associated with HBOT. The aim of this protocol is to investigate the efficacy of self-acupressure therapy on MEB associated with HBOT.
Previous studies shoes that hyperoxia alters microcirculation.The investigators hypothesize that hyperbaric may restore microcirculation integrity. This hypothesis is supported by a recent study in rabbits, but no data exists for humans. The study will expose fifteen healthy volunteers to a succession of different fraction of inspired oxygen and barometric pressure and assess microcirculatory and macrocirculatory changes via sidestream dark field videomicroscopy, near-infrared spectroscopy, Laser Doppler, transthoracic echocardiography and bio-impedancemetry at every step.
The investigators want to evaluate the short duration HBOT can improve glycohemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, leukocyte count, and serum creatinine levels in patients with DFU (diabetic foot ulcer) Wagner 3-4.
