Abstract:Objective To investigate the effects of hyperbaric oxygen on blood lipid and hemorheology in patients with cerebral infarction. Methods From February 2014 to February 2016, 120 patients with cerebral infarction in our hospital for diagnosis and treatment were selected and were divided into hyperbaric oxygen therapy group (HBO group) and the control group with 60 patients in each group accorded to the principle of random draw envelope. The control group was given routine drug treatment; the HBO group was given hyperbaric oxygen therapy based on the treatment in control group; two groups all were treated for 3 months. Results The total effective rate of treatment group and control group were 98.3% and 88.3%, respectively, and the total effective rate of HBO group was significantly higher than that of control group (P < 0.05). The average blood flow rate after treatment in HBO group and control group were (21.49 ± 3.19) and (14.20 ± 4.19) cm/s, which were significantly higher than (6.98 ± 2.11 cm/s) and (6.81 ± 1.99) cm/s before treatment (P < 0.05), and the average blood flow rate after treatment in HBO group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). After treatment, the LDL-C and HDL-C values in the HBO group were (1.98 ± 0.82) and (1.18 ± 0.24) mmol/L respectively, while the control group were (2.68 ± 0.56) and (1.19 ± 0.24)mmol/L, and the LDL-C value of HBO group was significantly lower than that of control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion The application of hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment of patients with cerebral infarction has a good application effects in promoting the blood flow velocity of the middle cerebral artery and adjusting the blood lipid level so as to improve the total effective rate.
