Hyperbaric Oxygen as an Adjunct in Zygomycosis: Randomized Controlled Trial in a Murine Model

Year: 2001

Type: article

Abstract: Zygomycosis was induced by injecting CD-1 mice with 5 mg of intraperitoneal deferoxamine and then 10(6) CFU of intravenous and intrasinus Rhizopus arrhizus. The addition of hyperbaric oxygen (2.0 atm absolute twice daily) to amphotericin B did not improve survival over that achieved with amphotericin B and placebo air treatments.
