A preliminary report is presented on 10 patients with spinal cord injuries who were treated with hyperbaric oxygen. The results suggest that by supporting injured spinal cord tissue with oxygen under pressure, improvement in nerve function may occur. No deterioration of motor power or sensation was evident during or after hyperbaric oxygen treatment in any of these patients. The possible contribution of ischaemia to the pathology of spinal cord injury should encourage further experimental research and clinical trials with hyperbaric oxygen.
本文给出了10例接受高压氧治疗的脊髓损伤患者的初步报告。结果表明，通过在压力下用氧气支持受损的脊髓组织，神经功能可能会得到改善。在这些患者中，任何一例在高压氧治疗期间或之后均未出现运动能力或感觉功能的恶化。局部缺血对脊髓损伤病理过程的可能作用，应促使人们对高压氧进行进一步的实验研究和临床试验。
