About this study

Official title: The Impact of Staying in Hyperbaric Oxygen Conditions on the Oxidant-antioxidant Balance and the Activities of Selected Lysosomal Enzymes

The aim of the research project was to investigate the effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment on the redox equilibrium in individuals with different pathological conditions. Both hyperbaric oxygenation and the pathological condition are associated with redox imbalance (oxidative stress), however, HBO is successfully used in the treatment of chronic wounds, e.g., diabetic foot syndrome, as well as in sudden and acute hearing loss, e.g., acute acoustic trauma or idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss.

Read the detailed description

The study involed in sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) patients, individuals with difficult-to-heal skin wounds following mechanical injuries, and diabetic foot patients. HBO therapy, which involved inhalation of 100% oxygen at a pressure of 2.5 atm, consisted of 14-30 sessions depending on the clinical case. The study material was venous blood drawn three times: before and after the first session, and after the last HBO procedure. The following variables were evaluated: the concentrations of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), malondialdehyde (MDA) and conjugated dienes (CD) in plasma and erythrocytes, the activities of catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) in erythrocytes, as well as, blood counts.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Hyperbaric Oxygen TherapyProcedure or surgery

    Also called HBO treatment, Hyperbaric Oxygenation

    HBO session includes three 20-minute inhalations of pure oxygen in a hyperbaric chamber utilizing specially fitted face masks for each patient. The session is conducted as follows: 10 minutes compression of up to 2.5 atm (0.25 MPa), inhalation of 100% oxygen for 20 minutes, a 5-minute break in the chamber without the mask (oxygen concentration up to 23%, constant temperature (room) and humidity), again 20 minutes inhalation of 100% oxygen, another 5-minute break (the same condition), the last 20 minutes inhalation of 100% oxygen, and finally a 10-minute decompression. The total duration of the session was 90 minutes.
