Studies on the experimental spinal contusion injury in animals confirm that posttraumatic ischemia contributes to central cystic necrosis or fibrosis occurring at the level of the spinal cord lesion. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) modifies the degree and extent of the pathology in the spinal cord of the experimental animals. HBO has been used for 45 patients with recent spinal cord injuries. The extent of recovery in 27 patients with upper motor neuron lesions treated with adequate HBO is reported. Fifteen of the 27 patients had useful functional recovery.
对动物实验性脊髓挫伤损伤的研究证实，创伤后缺血会导致脊髓损伤水平处出现中央囊性坏死或纤维化。高压氧（HBO）可改变实验动物脊髓病理变化的程度和范围。HBO已应用于45例近期脊髓损伤患者。报告了27例接受适当HBO治疗的上运动神经元损伤患者的恢复程度。27例患者中有15例获得了有效的功能恢复。
