[Changes in hemostasis in persons exposed to a change in atmospheric pressure].

In eight healthy volunteers--four professional and four amateur divers--in a hyperbaric chamber simulated diving was implemented, corresponding to the most frequently encountered conditions of diving activities in Czechoslovakia. Throughout the trial indicators of haemostasis were investigated. Under the selected model conditions changes of the investigated parameters developed which can be considered indicators of a latent process of disseminated coagulation and the so-called syndrome of silent bubbles.

[Treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular accidents with hyperbaric oxygenation].

The authors present eleven year's experience with comprehensive treatment of patients who suffered an ischemic cerebrovascular attack. This comprises so-called conventional treatment of cerebrovascular attacks and also hyperbaroxia, i.e. administration of oxygen under high partial pressure. The authors used a therapeutic pressure of 0.2 MPa for 90 minutes in individual exposures. Of 31 treated patients 23 improved, i.e. 76%; eight improved slightly, eight significantly and seven substantially. The condition of the remainder did not change. Hyperbaroxia should therefore be used everywhere where this method is available.
