However, it afforded protection against late death. 2) The hemodynamic deterioration of myocardial infarction was prevented by hyperbaric condition. 3) Ventricular tachycardia and ventricular ectopic beats occurred more frequently in hyperbaric condition than in room air. 4) The deviation of the ST segment was reduced by hyperbaric oxygenation. 5) SGOT and SGPT were not significantly reduced by hyperbaric oxygenation. 6) The extent of the infarcted lesion was significantly less in the caisson group than in the control group. Histological findings at the margin of the lesion showed further regenerative improvement in the caisson group. 7) Microangiographic studies showed that revascularization was developed more progressively in the caisson group. The results suggested the protective effect of hyperbaric oxygenation on the ischemic process after myocardial infarction. With the present study, it would be concluded that hyperbaric oxygenation exerts a beneficial effect on myocardial infarction.}, pages = {393--426}, title = {Influence of Hyperbaric Oxygenation on Coronary Artery Embolization in Dogs}, volume = {31}, year = {1969} }
