[Variations in pulse rate and arterial pressure during hyperbaric oxygenation]

A Valdivia Chinea, Y Serrano Ferrer, S Morales Cudello

    Revista Cubana De Enfermeria
    |January 1, 1993
    PubMed
    Summary

    Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBOT) did not significantly alter pulse rate or blood pressure in patients receiving at least five sessions. Observed physiological responses correlated with HBOT pressure levels.

    Area of Science:

    • Physiology
    • Cardiovascular Medicine
    • Oxygen Therapy

    Context:

    • Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBOT) is a medical treatment involving exposure to pure oxygen at elevated atmospheric pressure.
    • Assessing the physiological impact of HBOT on vital signs is crucial for patient safety and treatment optimization.
    • Previous research has explored HBOT's effects, but specific cardiovascular responses require continued investigation.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the influence of hyperbaric oxygenation on pulse rate and blood pressure in patients undergoing treatment.
    • To determine if observed variations in cardiovascular parameters are statistically significant across different HBOT pressure levels.
    • To correlate physiological responses with the pressures utilized during hyperbaric oxygenation therapy.

    Summary:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • Forty-five patients undergoing at least five hyperbaric oxygenation sessions were monitored.
    • Mean pulse rate and blood pressure (pre- and post-treatment) were analyzed to assess HBOT's impact.
    • No statistically significant variations in pulse rate or blood pressure were found at the employed HBOT dosages, though responses correlated with pressure.

    Impact:

    • Findings suggest that current HBOT protocols, within the studied dosages, do not induce significant adverse cardiovascular changes.
    • The correlation between physiological responses and pressure highlights the importance of pressure titration in HBOT.
    • This study contributes to understanding the safety profile of hyperbaric oxygenation concerning hemodynamic stability.
