ABSTRACT

Durante el periodo inicial de la pandemia de COVID-19, y debido a la saturación del sistema asistencial se planteó administrar tratamiento con oxigenoterapia hiperbárica (OHB) a pacientes con PCR + para COVID-19 o con alta sospecha clínica, radiológica y analítica en el Servicio de Medicina Hiperbárica (SMHB) del Hospital Central de la Defensa «Gómez Ulla» (HCD). OBJETIVOS: asistir a pacientes que no respondían a tratamiento, así como comprobar la eficacia de la OHB como una herramienta útil para el tratamiento del COVID-19. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Se valoraron 11 peticiones de tratamiento con OHB, de pacientes procedentes de plantas COVID-19 y UCI, de los cuales finalmente se trataron únicamente a 6 pacientes. Se procedió al tratamiento en cámara multiplaza, entre 1,6 y 2 atmósferas de presión absoluta (ATA) y tiempo de exposición entre 90 y 105 minutos, con la presencia en todo momento de acompañante. Se diseñaron protocolos de protección biológica respiratoria y de contacto frente al coronavirus. Se realizaron controles analíticos y pruebas de imagen. Resultado y conclusiones: Se completaron 35 sesiones de tratamiento. Los pacientes recibieron entre 1 y 14 sesiones No se produjo ningún caso de infección entre los sanitarios del servicio. Los pacientes que por su estado pudieron recibir más de 5 sesiones de OHB tuvieron una mejor evolución clínica. Se observaron reflejos de desaturación postratamiento con OHB


During the first period of the COVID-19 pandemic and due to saturation of the health care system, it was necessary to treat with hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) (in the Hyperbaric Medicine Service at the Defence Central Hospital «Gómez Ulla» (HCD)), some patients with PCR (+) for COVID -19, or with clinical, radiological or analytical high indicative data. OBJECTIVES: to treat patients without positive answer to regular treatment and to check the effectiveness of HBO as useful therapy for COVID-19. MATERIAL AND METHOD: There were valued 11 requests for treatment from COVID-9 wards and the Intensive Care Department. Eventually 6 of those patients were treated. These patients were treated in a multiplace hyperbaric chamber between 1.6 and 2 ATAs and for 90 to 105 minutes of time, with ancillary personnel inside the chamber the whole sessions. There were also developed security protocols to prevent COVID-19 infection. Image and analytics controls were followed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: 35 sessions of treatment were completed. The patients received from 1 to 14 sessions. It did not happen any case of infection on the medical personnel of the HBO Department. The patients which (due to their physical status) could receive 5 or more sessions had a better clinical evolution. Some desaturation reflexes were observed
