Abstract:

It appears to be that the consignment of intravenous oxygen therapy to oblivion as a useless and dangerous method is incorrect. A penetrating study of the mode of action of i.v.-injected oxygen, a determination of doses and indications for its use, and the creation of special devices may possibly permit the current methods of treating hypoxic states to be enriched with a new potent means, which at the present is being used from case to case and without sufficient theoretical foundations.
