Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy For Brain Injury Cerebral Palsy And Stroke

NEW 2016 EDITION INCLUDES NEW RESEARCH ON HBOT AS A GENE THERAPY TO TREAT TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY (TBI) AND OTHER DISORDERS. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is based on a simple idea—that oxygen can be used therapeutically for a wide range of conditions where tissues have been damaged by oxygen deprivation. Inspiring and informative, The Oxygen Revolution, Third Edition is the comprehensive, definitive guide to the miracle of hyperbaric oxygen therapy. HBOT directly affects the body at the genetic level, affecting over 8,000 individual genes—those responsible for healing, growth, and anti-inflammation. Dr. Paul G. Harch’s research and clinical practice has shown that this noninvasive and painless treatment can help those suffering from brain injury or such diseases as: - Stroke - Autism and other learning disabilities - Cerebral palsy and other birth injuries - Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, and other degenerative neurological diseases - Emergency situations requiring resuscitation, such as cardiac arrest, carbon monoxide poisoning, or near drowning For those affected by these seemingly “hopeless” diseases, there is finally hope in a proven solution: HBOT. From the Trade Paperback edition.

Discusses the potential therapeutic benefits of hyperbaric oxygenation in the treatment of a range of neurological disorders, including stroke, brain injury, autism, multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and cerebral palsy.

HOPE FOR MANY “HOPELESS” DISEASES, FROM ONE OF THE FOREMOST RESEARCHERS IN THE FIELD When Randy McCloy, Jr., the sole survivor of the Sago Mine disaster, finally walked out of the hospital to rejoin his family, it was in part due to the miracle of hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is based on an almost laughably simple idea: Oxygen can be used therapeutically for a wide range of conditions where tissues have been damaged by oxygen deprivation. Restore that oxygen, goes the logical thinking, and you can restore much of the lost function. It seems too good to be true, but Dr. Paul G. Harch’s research and clinical practice has shown that this noninvasive and painless treatment can help the tens of millions of Americans who suffer from a brain injury or disease, such as: · Stroke · Autism and other learning disabilities · Cerebral palsy and other birth injuries · Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, and other degenerative neurological diseases · Emergency situations requiring resuscitation, such as cardiac arrest, carbon monoxide poisoning, or near drowning It can also improve conditions in which inflammation is the culprit, such as arthritis and asthma; promote healing in infections, burns, and skin grafts, such as diabetic foot wounds; and slow the aging process. For the millions of Americans suffering from these seemingly “hopeless” diseases, here finally is the handbook of hope. Inspiring and informative, The Oxygen Revolution is the definitive guide to the miracle of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, from a pioneer in the field.

This comprehensive volume captures the latest scientific evidence, technological advances, treatments and impact of biotechnology in hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Divided into three distinct sections, the book begins with basic aspects that include history, equipment, safety and diagnostic approaches; this is followed by clinical applications for hyperbaric oxygen therapy in various modalities; the last section provides an overview of hyperbaric medicine as a specialty with best practices from around the world. Integration of multidisciplinary approaches to complex disorders are also covered. Updated and significantly expanded from previous editions, Textbook of Hyperbaric Medicine, 6th Edition will continue to be the definitive guide to this burgeoning field for students, trainees, physicians and specialists.

The Author of this new book, ?Hyperbaric Oxygenation for Cerebral Palsy and the Brain-Injured Child?A Promising Treatment?, is Dr. Richard Neubauer, internationally known and respected as one of the foremost authorities on hyperbaric medicine (HBOT). Since the early 1970s, Dr. Neubauer has successfully treated thousands of patients for a variety of illnesses and brain insults using hyperbaric oxygenation. In the past five years his primary focus has been children with neurological problems, especially cerebral palsy and traumatic brain injuries. He has treated more than 400 children with cerebral palsy using hyperbaric oxygenation as one of the children?s therapies.His latest book is a complete guide for caregivers of children with cerebral palsy or traumatic brain injuries who are considering using hyperbaric oxygenation therapy. Written in a semi-scientific manner, the information should also be of value to physicians, researchers, and insurance providers seeking accurate and proven insight about the value of hyperbaric oxygenation therapy for these children. It is one of a few, perhaps the only, book available written exclusively for caregivers. It covers a broad range of subjects from the functions of the brain to choosing a medically sound hyperbaric center where a child can receive safe and appropriate treatments. While one of the primary goals of the book is to introduce the positive effects of hyperbaric oxygenation, another purpose is to help the caregivers understand how single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) scans can be used to document the activity in the brain before and after treatments.Dr. Neubauer received his medical degree form the University of Virginia Medical School. Trained as an internist, Dr. Neubauer held directorships at a number of hospitals before specializing in hyperbaric medicine. He has published numerous journal articles and lectures at medical facilities all over the world on the subject of hyperbaric medicine for children with cerebral palsy, and is the co-founder of the American College of Hyperbaric Medicine.
