Deleterious effects of hyperbaric oxygen treatment on mortality and pathological changes in nitrogen-dioxide-poisoned dogs.
Nitrogen dioxide poisoning was experimentally produced in dogs. PO2, PCO2 and pH were measured in poisoned animals and during treatment with hyperbaric oxygen (OHP) lung lesions in both groups were evaluated. It is concluded that OHP has a deleterious effect both in terms of mortality and pathological changes.
