[Hyperbaric oxygenation as a method of intensive therapy in acute exogenous poisoning].

Abstract

Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) was used in intensive care of patients with acute exogenous poisonings. Impaired oxygen homeostasis was pathogenetically significant, irrespective of the toxic agent. HBO added to a complex of intensive care measures was pathogenetically justified and promoted normalization of clinical and biochemical parameters of homeostasis.
