The value of hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment of acute carbon monoxide intoxication was assessed in 629 adults who had been poisoned at home in the 12 h before admission to hospital. In patients without initial impairment of consciousness (group A) the effect of 6 h of normobaric oxygen (NBO) (group A0, n = 170) was compared with that of 2 h of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) at 2 atmospheres absolute (ATA) plus 4 h NBO (group A1, n = 173). At the 1 month follow-up 66% of A0 and 68% of A1 patients… CONTINUE READING
