The early history of clinical hyperbaric medicine was
characterized by a number of largely ill conceived attempts to use hyperbaric and oxygen-enriched air
for the treatment of a variety of acute and chronic conditions. Later studies reported the efficacy of
hyperbaric oxygen to enhance decompression following exposure to elevated pressures and the
subsequent insertion of oxygen into the early United States Navy Decompression Sickness Treatment
Tables. - CORRECT ANSWERSThe early history of clinical hyperbaric medicine was characterized by a

By the mid-1960's there was preliminary evidence of additional beneficial mechanisms associated with
intermittent, short term, exposure to elevated oxygen pressure. Prior to the laboratory and clinical
clarification of these findings, there followed a period of over-zealous and often inappropriate
application of
hyperbaric oxygen therapy. - CORRECT ANSWERSBy the mid-1960's there was preliminary evidence of

In 1976 the Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical
Society established a committee on Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. Under the committee's guidance, there
has been a careful reevaluation of the appropriate utilization of hyperbaric medicine with
increasing multi-center clinical experience and a growing number of randomized trials, hyperbaric
medicine programs are no longer limited to
military and research institutions. Today, they range across the continuum of healthcare institutions. -
