Abstract OBJECTIVES Failure of anastomotic healing is a morbid complication after airway or oesophageal surgery. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been used extensively in the management of complex wound-healing problems. We demonstrate the use of HBOT to rescue at-risk anastomoses or manage anastomotic failures in thoracic surgery. METHODS Retrospective review of 25 patients who received HBOT as part of the management of tracheal or oesophageal anastomotic problems during 2007–2018. HBOT was delivered at 2 atm with 100% oxygen in 90-min sessions. RESULTS Twenty-three patients underwent airway resection and reconstruction while 2 patients underwent oesophagectomy. There were 16 (70%) laryngotracheal and 7 (30%) tracheal resections. Necrosis at the airway anastomosis was found in 13 (57%) patients, partial dehiscence in 2 (9%) patients and both in 6 (26%) patients. HBOT was prophylactic in 2 (9%) patients. Patients received a median of 9.5 HBOT sessions (interquartile range 5–19 sessions) over a median course of 8 days. The airway anastomosis healed in 20 of 23 (87%) patients. Overall, a satisfactory long-term airway outcome was achieved in 19 (83%) patients; 4 patients failed and required reoperation (2 tracheostomies and 1 T-tube). HBOT was used in 2 patients after oesophagectomy to manage focal necrosis or ischaemia at the anastomosis, with success in 1 patient. Complications from HBOT were infrequent and mild (e.g. ear discomfort). CONCLUSIONS HBOT should be considered as an adjunct in the management of anastomotic problems after airway surgery. It may also play a role after oesophagectomy. Possible mechanisms of action are rapid granulation, early re-epithelialization and angiogenesis.

Head injury typically talks about to TBI, but is a larger category because it can includeinjury to assemblies other than the intelligence, such as the scalp and skull. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) disturbs a rising portion of the people and endures to take national attention with early payment in imaging equipment and in debt of long-term effects. TBI is a most important cause of death and failure to wide-reaching, specifically in teen-agers and undeveloped adults. Males withstand traumatic brain injuries additional habitually than do females. Though, there is great variance in TBI handlingprocedures due to injury inconsistency and absence of both automatousconsiderate and robust treatment references. In Recent years proposes three differenthandlingmethods, all which key purpose at cheering neuroprotection after that TBI, show possibilities: instantaneous hypothermia, hyperbaric oxygen, and progesterone enhancement. The investigation is provocative at times, yet there are profuseopenings to develop the knowledgebehind schedule hypothermia and hyperbaric oxygen therapy which would confidently aid in make straight the current data. Additionally, while progesterone has already been packaged in nanoparticle form it may benefit from continued formulation and managementinvestigation. The treatments and the opportunities for development isgo through in the present paper.
