[Use of hyperbaric oxygenation in the therapy of experimental hypothyroidism]

In animal experiments on rabbits the effect of hyperbaric oxygen was studied on the functional state of the myocardium, the cardiac resistance to induced peroxide lipid oxidation, the structural and functional changes in the thyroid gland and the state of microcirculation in the conditions of experimentally induced hypothyrosis. It was demonstrated that hyperbaric oxygen has a favourable effect on the state of myocardium and microcirculation.
