Summary

What Researchers Did

Researchers evaluated the efficacy of two hyperbaric therapeutic regimes (1.1 atm and 1.2 atm) in patients with acute ischaemic stroke, investigating various blood parameters.

What They Found

Compared to conventional methods, barotherapy using regimes of 1.1 atm and 1.2 atm showed a marked therapeutic effect in patients with acute ischaemic stroke. This therapy activated tissue respiration and normalized lipid peroxidation, unlike other oxygen therapies that can cause blood plasma hyperoxygenation. It led to the renewal of microcirculation and autoregulation, providing a stable therapeutic effect in brain ischaemia.

Canadian Relevance

This study has no direct Canadian connection as it was conducted by researchers outside of Canada.
