The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) on postural stability in healthy volunteers. The study was performed in accordance with treatment protocols for divers' decompression sickness and carbon monoxide poisoning.
Twenty-one healthy male divers, aged 31 +/- 6.88 years (mean +/- SD), were tested with quantitative Romberg's test before and after HBO (90 min in a pressure chamber at an ambient pressure of 253 kPa, approximately 15 m of sea water, breathing pure oxygen). The quantitative Romberg's test is a calculation of the average sway for 50 s.
No difference was found between sway before and after the HBO (P < 0.05), i.e. we were unable to show that the results of quantitative Romberg's test are affected by HBO. Thus, the quantitative Romberg's test may be a valuable tool in evaluating patients with decompressions sickness, carbon monoxide intoxication and other neurological diseases normally treated with HBO.
本研究旨在确定高压氧疗(HBO)对健康志愿者姿势稳定性的影响。该研究按照潜水员减压病和一氧化碳中毒的治疗方案进行。
21名年龄为31±6.88岁(平均±标准差)的健康男性潜水员,在接受HBO治疗前后(在压力舱中于253 kPa的环境压力下,约相当于15米海水深度,呼吸纯氧90分钟)接受了定量罗姆伯格试验测试。定量罗姆伯格试验是计算50秒内的平均摆动情况。
HBO治疗前后的摆动情况无差异(P < 0.05),即我们无法证明定量罗姆伯格试验的结果受到HBO的影响。因此,定量罗姆伯格试验可能是评估通常接受HBO治疗的减压病、一氧化碳中毒及其他神经疾病患者的一种有价值的工具。
