Abstract
Summary: The Vickers hyperbaric oxygen bed is described and details of its use are given in the treatment of 207 patients with a wide variety of clinical conditions. As part of a deliberate policy, a special study was made of its place in the treatment of severe acute myocardial infarction. No major procedural difficulties were encountered. Results are generally encouraging and frequently of dramatic benefit.Keywords
