Background and Aims. Patients may experience complications of Crohn’s disease (CD) even when treated with optimal medical therapy strategies. Previous data have shown the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in the management of complicated CD. However, there is no consensus regarding the optimal number of sessions or duration of treatment regimens. The aim of the present study was to investigate the efficacy of HBOT in CD patients who were refractory to conventional medical management. Methods. This study included patients who underwent HBOT for the treatment of the following complications: perianal fistulizing Crohn’s disease (pCD), enterocutaneous fistulas (ECF), or pyoderma gangrenosum (PG). Complete healing was defined as the closure of external orifice and the absence of active draining (in pCD), complete wound healing (in PG), and granulation or complete wound epithelialization with no enteric draining (in ECF). The persistence of draining and the absence of wound granulation were defined as incomplete healing. Results. Forty patients were included. The mean CD duration was 10.6 ± 5.8 years. pCD comprised most of the included patients (25/62.5%), followed by ECF ( n = 13 / 32.5 % ) and PG ( n = 6 / 15 % ). In two patients (5%), a combination of ECF and PG was diagnosed, and in one patient (2.5%), all three complications were observed. A total of 32 patients (82.5%) had complete healing. Patients with PG had the highest healing rates (100%), followed by those with ECF (84.6%) and pCD (80%). Conclusions. Adjunctive HBO was associated with significant healing rates for CD-associated complications such as pCD, ECF, and PG.

<p><strong>Objective: </strong>To review and analyze the clinical effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the treatment of craniocerebral trauma, and to provide reference for the treatment of craniocerebral trauma. <strong>Method: </strong>From January 2009 to April 2014, we treated 287 cases of patients with craniocerebral trauma, on the basis of conventional treatment, the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy and assessment for therapeutic effect. <strong>Results</strong><strong>: </strong>After hyperbaric oxygen therapy, patients with GCS score and GOS levels were significantly improved, compared with before treatment, the difference was statistically significant (<em>p</em> &lt; 0.05); effect of the treatment of patients with 2−3 courses of treatment was better than patients receive more than 3 courses of treatment (<em>p</em> &lt; 0.05). <strong>Conclusion: </strong>Hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment of craniocerebral trauma can effectively improve patient’s symptoms and signs, there are helpful in the recovery of the body function of patients. Hyperbaric oxygen treatment should be carry out as soon as possible with appropriate extending the duration of treatment, as well as reduce the severe disability, death and sequela.</p>

Objetivo: descrever a prevalência dos tipos de feridas com indicação para oxigenoterapia hiperbárica. Método: estudo transversal, quantitativo e retrospectivo. Foram analisados prontuários de pacientes atendidos no setor de medicina hiperbárica referentes ao período de janeiro a dezembro de 2015. Empregou-se estatística descritiva e analítica. Resultados: Nos 60 prontuários analisados foram prevalentes: idade entre 19-49 anos e 61-72 anos (ambas com 27,1%), sexo masculino (68,3%), Diabetes Mellitus (44,1%) e deiscência cirúrgica (20,3%). Pessoas com idade de 61-72 anos tiveram maior tempo de sessões (mediana = 40 sessões). A regressão por modelagem linear utilizando como preditor a variável tempo de tratamento pela doença, demonstrou significância estatística do tabagismo e doença hematológica.  Discussão: Os achados corroboram com estudos sobre a ocorrência de feridas. Conclusão: O estudo de prevalência poderá contribuir para a elaboração de um plano de cuidados de enfermagem individualizado ao portador de feridas que realizam tratamento no setor de oxigenoterapia hiperbárica.Descritores: Oxigenação hiperbárica; Ferimento e Lesões; Cicatrização; Prevalência; Enfermagem. Objective: Describe the prevalence of types of wounds indicated for hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Method: cross-sectional, quantitative and retrospective study. Were analyzed medical records of patients seen in the hyperbaric medicine sector for the period from January to December 2015. Descriptive and analytical statistics were used. Results: In the 60 medical records analyzed, the following were prevalent: age between 19-49 years and 61-72 years (both with 27,1%), male (68,3%), Diabetes Mellitus (44,1%) and surgical dehiscence (20,3%). People aged 61-72 years had longer sessions (median = 40 sessions). Regression by linear modeling using the variable duration of treatment for the disease as a predictor, demonstrated statistical significance of smoking and hematological disease. The findings corroborate with studies on the occurrence of wounds. Conclusion: The prevalence study may contribute to the development of an individualized nursing care plan for patients with wounds undergoing treatment in the hyperbaric oxygen therapy sector.Descriptors: Hyperbaric oxygenation; Wounds and Injuries;  Healing; Prevalence; Nursing. Objetivo: describir la prevalencia de los tipos de heridas indicadas para la oxigenoterapia hiperbárica.

Se analizaron los registros médicos de pacientes atendidos en el sector de la medicina hiperbárica para el período de enero a diciembre de 2015. Se utilizaron estadísticas descriptivas y analíticas. Resultados: en los 60 registros médicos analizados, prevalecieron los siguientes: edad entre 19-49 años y 61-72 años (ambos con 27.1%), hombres (68.3%), diabetes mellitus (44.1%) y dehiscencia quirúrgica ( 20,3%). Las personas de 61 a 72 años tuvieron sesiones más largas (mediana = 40 sesiones). La regresión por modelado lineal utilizando la duración variable del tratamiento de la enfermedad como predictor, demostró la importancia estadística del tabaquismo y la enfermedad hematológica. Los hallazgos corroboran con los estudios sobre la aparición de heridas. Conclusión: El estudio de prevalencia puede contribuir al desarrollo de un plan de atención de enfermería individualizado para pacientes con heridas que reciben tratamiento en el sector de oxigenoterapia hiperbárica.Descriptores: Oxigenación hiperbárica; Heridas y Lesiones; Cicatrización; Prevalencia; Enfermería.

This communication presents the experience of using mobile pressure chambers in patients with the confi rmed novel coronavirus infection in hospital settings. The obtained preliminary results indicate positive antihypoxic effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) applied in the form of increased saturation. After a session of HBO, patients demonstrated an increase in the oxygen saturation of capillary blood hemoglobin at the average level of 3.71 points. Differences between SatO2 levels prior to and following HBO treatment were signifi cant in the CT2, CT3 and CT4 groups (p0.05). As expected, the effi cacy of HBO in terms of the oxygen saturation of capillary blood hemoglobin was the greatest in the patient groups showing pronounced clinical and radiological changes in the lungs.

<p>The pattern and lifestyle of today's society with the presence of an interner facility makes people spend more time sitting out than on exercise and increased consumption of high-fat foods may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. An effective therapy is needed in preventing the occurrence of cardiovascular disease. Hyperbaric oxygen now starts to develop for the treatment of several diseases, which in turn can increase the gene forming antioxidant enzymes and ROS. To determine effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on total cholesterol levels of wistar white rats (Rattusnovergicus) induced bye high fat. The study was carried out in an expeative post test only group control of three groups. One group is given standard feed. All groups induced high-fat diet and standard feed. Of the two groups induced, one group was given hyperbaric oxygen therapy with a dose of 3 x 30 minutes for six days on day 7 at a blood test to determine total cholesterol levels<strong>. </strong>One way Anova parametric statistic test showed that p = 0.007 &lt; α proved hypothesis that hyperbaric oxygen therapy giving effect to total cholesterol level of white mice of jantangalurist rings induced by high fat diet. Total cholesterol was significantly different between K (-) and K (+) and between K (-) and P. It was found that hyperbaric oxygen therapy had an effect on total cholesterol level dose of 3x30 minutes for six days.</p>
