简要总结
In this small pilot study, participants (patients and healthy volunteers) will have blood drawn before and after the study intervention (hyperbaric chamber session or normal pressure oxygen breathing. This blood will be analyzed for neutrophil oxidative burst and cytokine analysis.
详细描述
The investigators are interested in studying the influence of hyperbaric oxygen on neutrophils (a kind of white blood cell) and cytokines (cell proteins). Hyperbaric oxygen can enhance the way the immune system works, but the investigators don't fully know how that happens. the investigators are doing this study to learn more about this question.

研究组 & 干预措施
Critically ill patients with infection
Adult patients with acute, life-threatening infection for which hyperbaric oxygen is clinically indicated will have blood drawn before and after their first and fourth clinical hyperbaric oxygen treatments.
干预措施: Hyperbaric Oxygen (Drug)
Diabetics with active, chronic infection
Adult patients with diabetes mellitus and current antibiotic use for active infection will have blood drawn before and after their first and fourth clinical hyperbaric oxygen treatments.
干预措施: Hyperbaric Oxygen (Drug)
No diabetes or infection
Adult patients without diabetes and not using antibiotics will have blood drawn before and after their first and fourth clinical hyperbaric oxygen treatments.
干预措施: Hyperbaric Oxygen (Drug)
Carbon monoxide patients
Adult patients with acute carbon monoxide poisoning will have blood drawn before and after their first clinical hyperbaric oxygen treatment.
干预措施: Hyperbaric Oxygen (Drug)
Glucose tolerance test
Diabetic patients co-enrolled in a hyperbaric oxygen and glucose control study will have blood drawn before and after their glucose tolerance test and their first clinical hyperbaric oxygen treatment.
干预措施: Hyperbaric Oxygen (Drug)
Brain injury research subjects
Research subjects co-enrolled in a study examining hyperbaric oxygen for post-concussive symptoms will have blood drawn before and after their first and fourth hyperbaric chamber sessions.
干预措施: Hyperbaric Oxygen (Drug)
Hyperbaric chamber inside attendants
Hyperbaric chamber inside attendants will have their blood drawn before, mid-session, and after their chamber exposure during their regular duty day. The hyperbaric chamber exposure will include hyperbaric air and hyperbaric oxygen components (hyperbaric air/oxygen).
