No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This is an observational research study whose purposes are to see the effects of repeated hyperbaric oxygen therapy treatments on the levels of stem/progenitor cells in peripheral circulating blood following five days of treatment, 90 minutes per day at 2.0 atmospheres absolute in 100% USP Grade Oxygen. Hyperbaric oxygen has a greater oxygen concentration than air at sea level. In this research, the concentration of oxygen will be twice the level of oxygen at sea level.

Conditions

  • Changes in Peripheral Blood Population Numbers and Type.

Interventions

OTHER

Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment

Hyperabric oxygen will be delivered via a PerryPerry-Sigma Monoplace Hyperbaric Chambers. Oxygen is supplied by Air Gas, Seattle. All gases will meet Health Standards for oxygen and air. The hyperbaric chamber technicians employed by Restorix Health are trained health personnel who will be assisting our study participant and monitoring the HBO treatment. Oxygen will be delivered at a pressure of 2.0 ATA for 90 minutes, once a day for 5 consective days.
