Autism is a complicated developmental incapacity that often appears
in the first 3 years of life and has effects on an individual's
capability to speak and have interaction with others. Autism is
defined by a certain set of behaviors and is a "spectrum disorder"
that is affecting people differently and to varying degrees. Though
there's no single known cause or cure . Youngsters don't grow beyond
autism, but studies indicate that early diagnosis and intervention
can cause noticeably improved outcomes.
With the right
services and support, people with autism can live full, healthy and
suggestive lives. These are some signs to go looking for in the kids
in your life : shortage of or delay in spoken language Incessant use
of language and / or motor quirks almost no eye contact absence of
interest in peer relations shortage of spontaneous or make-believe
play. Determined fixation on parts of objects. Hyperbaric Oxygen
Care and Autism. HBOT can compensate for reduced blood flow by
accelerating the oxygen content of plasma and body tissues and can
even normalize oxygen levels in ischemic tissue.
In addition,
contemporary proof demonstrates that HBOT mobilizes stem cells from
human bone marrow, that may help symptoms in autistic people.
Primarily based on these findings, it is hypothesized that HBOT will
improve symptoms in autistic people. ( Dr. Rossignol, Hyperbaric
oxygen treatment might improve certain pathophysiological findings
in autism, 2006 )
Hyperbaric
oxygen treatment ( HBOT ) has been shown to extend oxygen perfusion,
has strong anti-inflammatory effects, reduces oxidative stress and
increases stem cell production. Studies have demonstrated that
autism is a neurodegenerative illness identified by cerebral
hypo-perfusion, GI inflammation, and a rise in oxidative stress.
Hypo-perfusion is outlined as reduced blood flood thru an organ, as
in circulatory shock ; if lengthened, it may lead to permanent
cellular dysfunction and death.
Clinical studies
concerning PET ( Positive Emission Tomography ) scans have shown
that upwards of 85% of autistic youngsters have reduced blood flow
to the temporal regions of the brain, and this hypoperfusion worsens
as the kid ages. This cerebral hypoperfusion in autistic kids causes
hypoxia ( a deficit of oxygen ), which is thought to cause electric
failures in brain cells. Research has shown that oxygen delivered by
HBOT can reverse hypoxia in brain tissues due to hypoperfusion.
A number of
these hypoxic brain cells have been described as idling because they
remain alive but not functional. Restoration of oxygenation is
thought to salvage these cells.
