- Summary
- "This textbook, now appearing in its 5th, fully updated, and expanded edition, has become widely known as the best exposition available on the topic of hyperbaric medicine and the wide range of applications of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) techniques. In addition to explaining the basic principles of HBO therapy and its application in carbon monoxide poisoning, decompression sickness, and diving medicine, the textbook looks objectively and critically at its use in numerous other areas, such as stroke, CNS and neurological disorders, traumatology and wound healing, infectious diseases, rehabilitation and sports medicine, plastic surgery, emergency medicine, obstetrics, and cancer treatment. With over 1,700 up-to-date references and an extensive index, the volume is not just a textbook suitable for those seeking an introduction to this expanding field, but also an invaluable resource for specialists."--BOOK JACKET.
