Popis: | BACKGROUND: Hyperbaric oxygen has been reported to improve disease activity in hospitalised ulcerative colitis (UC) patients. AIM: To evaluate dosing strategies with hyperbaric oxygen for hospitalised UC patients. METHODS: We enrolled UC patients hospitalised for acute flares (Mayo score 6-12). Initially, all patients received 3 days of hyperbaric oxygen at 2.4 atmospheres (90 minutes with two air breaks) in addition to intravenous steroids. Day 3 responders (reduction of partial Mayo score ≥ 2 points and rectal bleeding score ≥ 1 point) were randomised to receive a total of 5 days vs 3 days of hyperbaric oxygen. RESULTS: We treated 20 patients with hyperbaric oxygen (75% prior biologic failure). Day 3 response was achieved in 55% (n = 11/20), with significant reductions in stool frequency, rectal bleeding and CRP (P |
