 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 6 Hyperbaric oxygen therapy 90 cases of high altitude pulmonary edema Observation [Abstract] Objective To observe the high-pressure oxygen on high altitude pulmonary edema in rats. Way our department from January 2007 to April 2008 90 cases were treated HAPE patients given conventional therapy in the hyperbaric oxygen treatment, control group conventional therapy. Results group cyanosis, difficulty breathing, hemoptysis sputum several effects bubbles are better than the control group, to reduce coughing, rales also significantly reduce the absorption of the two indicators. but no significant difference in efficacy. Conclusion altitude pulmonary edema in patients with hyperbaric oxygen therapy, pulmonary edema can significantly shorten the course of the disease. [Key Words] high-pressure oxygen, high altitude pulmonary edema, “leak” theory Our department from January 2007 to April 2008 90 patients were treated in patients with high altitude pulmonary edema in the conventional therapy plus hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and from March 2004 to December 2005 114 patients were treated by conventional therapy pulmonary edema as a control, observation of hyperbaric oxygen on the intervention of high altitude pulmonary edema, high-pressure oxygen in the treatment of high altitude pulmonary edema, the clinical significance, are as follows. 1 Materials and Methods 1.1 General Information The group 90 cases, male 68 cases, 22 females, aged 16 to 52 years, with an average of 35 years. Entering the plateau in 78 patients, 12 patients re-entering the plateau, the initial incidence of 81 cases, secondary disease were 7 cases, many times the incidence in 2 cases. based on clinical signs and symptoms in patients with the disease will be divided into: mild headache, cough, mild cyanosis, difficulty breathing light, scattered in the lungs could be heard and blisters sound, no neurological symptoms, moderate headache, cough, cyanosis weight, breathi
