Hyperbaric Stroke

Hyperbaric Traumatic Brain Injury

More recently, the U.S. Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) concluded that the presence of pressurized air during the research might have had a beneficial effect on motor functions. It stated: “The results of the only truly randomized trial were difficult to interpret because of the use of pressurized room airthe control group. As both groups improved, the benefit of pressurized air and of HBOT at 1.3 to 1.5 atm should both be examined in future studies….The authors of the trial thought that the children in both groups improved because participation in the study provided an opportunity for more stimulating interaction with their parents.…

This is speculative, however, because there was no evidence to suggest that the parents and their children had less time together, or less stimulating interaction, before he study began….The possibility that pressurized room air had a beneficial effect on motor function should be considered the leading explanation.”

Hyperbaric Cerebral Palsy

Hyperbaric Chambers Cerebral Palsy

The first pilot study was conducted by Montgomery et al. and showed that 25 patients with CP presented a significant increase in their gross motor functions (5.3%) and fine motor functions, along with a decrease in spasticity, following 20 sessions of HBOT (95% oxygen at 1.75 ATA for 60 minutes.

The video exams of the children before and after HBOT were blindly evaluated and the post-HBOT
exams were picked as the better exam about 65% of the time.Later studies also demonstrated positive results: seeTable 3. Collet et al. conducted a study intended to fill in the gaps of the study by
Montgomery et al. Collet et al. studied 111 children: The “study” group of 57 received 40 sessions of HBOT with 100% oxygen at 1.75 ATA. The “control” group of 54 received air at 1.3ATA, also in a hyperbaric chamber. Both groups had 60-minute sessions 5 days a week for 8 weeks. Of the 111 children, 107 completed the treatment series, and 101 had a 3-month follow-up. Gross motor function was assessed using the GMFM (Gross Motor Functional Measure), a standardized tool that is considered the most reliable and objective way to measure gross motor function in children.

The children stopped all other interventions while they underwent HBOT, so the improvement in GMFM occurred in the absence of other therapies.

Both groups, receiving two different dosages of hyperbaric treatments, improved very significantly
following the interventions. The progress persisted after 3 months. During the 2 months of treatment the rate of progress was 15 times faster than during the 3 months follow-up when all usual therapies
were reintroduced. No significant differences were noted between the two groups. Scores improved by 2.9 units in the HBOT group and 3.0 in the pressurized air (“control”) group, = .544. Other assessments included performance in daily activities, attention, memory, and language. Both groups improved significantly in these areas, with no significant difference between them.

The researchers postulated that either the two treatments were equally effective or that the mere act of participating in a trial that promoted communication with other motivated children and parents had a positive effect.

Hyperbaric Lymes

Hyperbaric Lymes Disease

High-pressure (hyperbaric) oxygen is legitimately used to treat deep sea divers suffering from decompression sickness (“the bends”) and smoke inhalation, and to help treat several other conditions. There are 300 hyperbaric facilities in the United States. Some of these facilities have been used to treat AIDS, chronic fatigue syndrome, and Lyme disease. The Lyme patients subjecting themselves to long hours in these small chambers apparently hope that high-pressure oxygen will enhance oxygen-dependent immune mechanisms and kill spirochetes lurking beyond the reach of antibiotics.

Is HBOT effective against Lyme disease? At far as I know, it has not been subjected to clinical testing for that purpose. One Lyme patient writing on the Internet said, “After 30 hours of therapy [at $4,000] in 90-minute doses I had no positive results for chronic Lyme treatment.” Another online patient wrote, “The director of the clinic is refusing to refund . . . me. This money was for some of the dives I was scheduled to take, but was unable to because I was sick.” At best, HBOT is an experimental treatment for some infectious diseases. It is one of several treatments not recommended by the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) [16].

Hyperbaric Wounds

Hyperbaric Plastic Surgery

Rationale:
In an hypoxic environment, wound healing is halted by decreased fibroblast proliferation collagen production, and capillary angiogenesis (1). Hypoxia also allows growth of anaerobic organisms, further complicating wound healing. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy provides a significant increase in tissue oxygenation in the hypoperfused, infected wound. It influences the rate of collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and bacterial clearance in wounds. The greatest benefits are achieved in tissues with compromised blood flow and oxygen supply.

Diabetic Wounds:
The increased wound oxygen tension achieved with HBO promotes wound healing, increases the host antimicrobial defenses and has a direct bacteriostatic effect on anaerobic microorganisms.

Venous Stasis Ulcers:
HBO therapy has a very limited role. It is only indicated in highly selected patients in the preparation of a granulating bed over debrided venous ulcer for eventual skin grafting. (2)

Pressure Ulcers:
HBO therapy may be useful when underlying osteomyelitis is present or to improve the soft tissue envelope for reconstruction.

Arterial Insufficiency Ulcers:
HBO therapy may be of benefit in selected cases, especially when a wound fails to heal despite maximum revascularization.

Treatments:
HBO treatments are performed at 2.0 to 25 ATA for 90 to 120 minutes of oxygen breathing. The initial treatment schedule is dictated by the severity of the disease process. In the presence of limb-threatening infection after debridement or compromised surgical flaps following amputation the patient should be treated twice daily. When the infection is under control and the soft tissue envelope improves, once daily treatments are adequate.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Hyperbaric Autism

The hand-to-mouth existence of a non-profit-making centre such as Breath for Life is shaming. The charity charges £10 for children and £25 for adults for a 90-minute session in the oxygen chamber, compared with fees of up to £380 an hour charged by some private units.

The centre has just been threatened with “enforcement procedures” by the Healthcare Commission unless it pays £580 for one of its staff, Dave Holehouse, a life-support technician with 25 years’ experience, to attend a course qualifying him to inspect the centre’s 45ft oxygen pipeline.

“We have not got all the fancy gases they have in hospitals, delivered through miles of pipes,” he says, “but we are being treated as if we had. Ninety-eight per cent of the course I won’t need for my job and the other two per cent I already know.”

The Healthcare Commission says it is trying to interpret statutory safety requirements sensitively but that charity staff must have “relevant and up-to-date training”. Few would disagree, especially where vulnerable patients – many of them children – are concerned.

But there does appear to be an argument for charities providing services the NHS cannot – or does not want to – to have special status.

Jane Dean wants the Department of Health to reclassify charitable hyperbaric oxygen treatment centres as hospices, which have lower registration and inspection fees. “We are a tiny little postage stamp on the face of the earth, but we are plugging health service shortcomings on a daily basis. Surely that counts for something.”

“Our centre is very small, yet it is unjustly classified as an independent private hospital with specialist technology. It is run by volunteers and has only one paid member of staff, yet we are being asked by the Healthcare Commission [the independent health inspection organisation] to pay the same annual inspection fee – £1,500 – as commercially run centres.

“The struggle for survival is acute. Day to day, we wonder if we will have enough money to pay British Oxygen Company [oxygen costs £1,000 a month].”

Leanne Walker, a psychology student who suffered brain damage following encephalitis, is one of the centre’s most moving success stories.

“In the beginning, she woke up every day begging me to kill her,” says her mother, Susan. “She told me later that she only called me Mum because she thought it would make me feel better. She didn’t really know who I was. She went back to being a child and lost all sense of appropriate behaviour. We had to teach her everything, even the names of objects like cups and saucers. She had no long-term memory, and her short-term memory was about 30 seconds.”

After four weeks of treatment at the Breath for Life centre, 25-year-old Leanne’s memory started to improve. “One day she remembered something she had done the day before. It was a wonderful breakthrough,” says her mother.

She was treated for an hour and a half three times a week for three months, then once a week. “We dared not miss it. Her improvement amazed us.” Leanne was able to repeat her first-year course at Lancaster University, graduated with a 2:1 and now has a part-time job as a teaching assistant.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Hyperbaric Autism

Andrew Waddington is as limp as a sleeping child in his father’s arms. But he is not asleep and there is something disturbing about this kind of floppiness. His head is lolling and swinging. His limbs seem weak and uncontrolled.

Ten years ago, during a routine 10-minute operation to correct an undescended testicle, Andrew was deprived of oxygen. The medical accident, known euphemistically as “acquired brain injury”, left him with a condition resembling cerebral palsy.

Now he is 13, a handsome boy who communicates by moving his heavy head in a semi-circle – right for yes, left for no, and subtle gradations in between, on a scale of one to 10.

“How was school today, Andrew?” his mother, Teresa, asks him. His head sweeps round three-quarters of the arc towards the right. “I see, seven out of 10.”

“He may appear to be a terrible case,” Teresa says, “but if you had seen him before you’d realise just how far he has come. He could not see. He could not understand. He cried all day. We spent all our time trying to alleviate his distress.

“We were told he would probably only ever recognise me as a ‘familiar smell’. Doctors said there was no hope; to put him in a home, to have another child.”

Andrew spent 21 months at Alder Hey Hospital’s brain injury unit in Liverpool. Then the Waddingtons heard about a children’s naturopathic clinic in Lancaster, close to their home, run by former nurse and midwife Jane Dean. In desperation, they took him to see her.

“Andrew’s body was curved like a banana,” recalls Dean. “He had no control over any of his muscles and was being fed through a tube. He was on 16 different kinds of medication. There was no cognition at all.

“He had that high-pitched ‘cerebral’ cry that, once you have heard, you hope never to hear again in your life. My heart went out to him. I thought, ‘Surely there must be more we can do.’”

Dean had recently watched a television programme about the remarkable healing powers of oxygen administered under pressure, known as hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT). She decided to see if it would help Andrew.

She rented a hyperbaric oxygen chamber and had it installed on an industrial estate in Lancaster. For six months, Andrew was treated there three to five times a week.
