Simply put, it is the process of inhaling high concentration oxygen in an environment above atmospheric pressure to treat diseases, which is called hyperbaric oxygen therapy. People need to be treated in hyperbaric oxygen chamber environment.
What is the difference between hyperbaric oxygen and oxygen in the atmosphere? P> Under normal circumstances, oxygen inhaled by the human body enters the lungs, and then oxygen is transported to the whole body through red blood cells in the blood. If the patient has 15g, it is found that each gram of hemoglobin can carry 1.34ml of oxygen, while each gram of arterial blood can carry 20. 1ml of oxygen (15x When hemoglobin carries all oxygen and then inhales more oxygen, the oxygen content in the blood will not change much. So, what if the patient is still hypoxic? The problem of patients' lack of oxygen can be solved by increasing oxygen in blood. How can we increase dissolved oxygen in blood? As we all know, the solubility of gas in liquid increases with pressure. Oxygen inhalation under high pressure (hyperbaric oxygen chamber) can significantly increase the dissolved oxygen content in patients' blood. Under a certain pressure, the patient's body, if hemoglobin alone removes all the oxygen dissolved in the blood, will meet the needs of the patient's metabolism.
The role of hyperbaric oxygen?
Hyperbaric oxygen has a wide and unique function. Is there any alternative? Simply put, hyperbaric oxygen:
1。 Promote aerobic metabolism of cells, correct hypoxia, and make cells fully aerobic metabolism. At present, there are many drugs for promoting blood circulation and dilating blood vessels on the market. The purpose of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis and dilating blood vessels is oxygen, and hyperbaric oxygen directly absorbs oxygen, which is properly mastered without any side effects.
2。 Broad-spectrum antibacterial effect, not only anti-anaerobic, aerobic.
3。 It can shrink the edema artery, reduce the local blood volume and reduce the swelling. The decrease of oxygen in arterial blood entering tissues is due to the high oxygen content in blood, despite the fact that it still increases.
4。 Promote leukocyte sterilization. With sufficient oxygen, peroxide will increase, and the bactericidal effect of white blood cells will also be enhanced.
5。 Promote the antibacterial effect of some antibiotics. SIZ, TMP, streptomycin, isoniazid, sodium p-aminosalicylate.
6。 Increase the permeability of blood-brain barrier. When intracranial space-occupying lesions (such as infection and tumor), hyperbaric oxygen and drugs can increase the concentration of intracranial drugs and improve the curative effect.
7。 Promote the emission of harmful gases, such as natural gas and dichloromethane.
8。 The increase of oxygen diffusion distance. The results show that the capillary diffusion distance of normal gray matter is about 30 microns, and it can reach 100 micron under hyperbaric oxygen.
9。 Regulate immune function. So far, it has been found that hyperbaric oxygen has low allergic reaction to immune function-inhibition and can improve two-way regulation.
10。 Impact on health. With the increase of age, some cells (brain cells) lack oxygen and ischemia, lack aerobic metabolism and finally die. Before this, the death of these cells, given adequate oxygen supply on a regular basis, can delay and reduce the speed and quantity of cell death.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for these diseases?
