What Researchers Did
Researchers investigated the dissolution activity of human infective stones in UROCITRA solution under hyperbaric oxygen conditions compared to normal conditions.
What They Found
While hyperbaric oxygen significantly increased the PO2 of UROCITRA solution (365 +/- 44 mmHg vs. 125 +/- 12 mmHg normobaric, p 0.05).
Canadian Relevance
This study has no direct Canadian connection.
Study Limitations
A key limitation is that this was an in vitro study, meaning the results may not directly translate to clinical outcomes in human patients.
