THE ROLE OF HYPERPRESSURE OXYGENATİON İN THE SYNDROME OF PROLONGED COMPRESSİON (SDS) OF THE UPPER LİMB (CASE CASE)

Abstract

On the example of a clinical case of compartment syndrome, it has been shown that the hyper-pressure oxygenation at initial stages of its use leads to a faster differentiation of viable and non-viable tissues and the rejection of the latter, reduces the duration of the degenerative-inflammatory period as well as, while favorable course of the process, is capable of transferring the wound to the regeneration phase within the first 2 days. Furthermore, in the postoperative period, the daily use of hyper-pressure oxygenation under a pressure of 1-2 atm for 45-60 minutes reduces edema in the operation area, reduces the intensity of the inflammatory process, promotes faster and more complete regeneration of the affected soft tissues and leads to a significant acceleration of wound healing alongside with formation of a delicate scar.
