Summary

What Researchers Did

Researchers studied 20 patients with severe peritonitis after surgery, giving them hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) and tracking their body's detoxification levels for seven days.

What They Found

They observed 20 patients over seven postoperative days. The study found that changes in the paramecium test, middle molecular mass, and ammonia concentrations showed that HBOT had a detoxifying effect in these patients. These markers helped assess the degree of intoxication and the effectiveness of HBOT.

Canadian Relevance
