Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy In Calcium Chloride Extravasation Injuries: An Experimental Animal Study

Abstract: Aim: Parenteral alimentation fluids containing calcium are widely used to treat sick neonates and children. Extravasation of calcium presents with local swelling, erythema, blistering and progresses to skin necrosis and skin loss. Several treatment modalities including hyperbaric oxygen therapy have been used for extravasation injuries. The role of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on extravasation injuries was investigated in this study by an experimental rat model based on facilitating effect of hyperbaric oxygen on… Show more

“…Calcium chloride also has a negative effect on the human body. The damage of calcium chloride through the dermis was assessed by histopathologic examination and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) group showed a statistically significant preservation of epidermis and dermis with minimal necrosing findings of skin injury [17]. In this study, high concentrations of calcium chloride affected the survival of soil microorganisms (Table I).…”
