I actually doubt that, as far as I know oxymeters works by a ray of light that penetrates the tissue in a finger and records the amount of rays that are reflected by hemoglobin ando oxyhemoglobin, respectively.

This means that any oxygen which is dissolved directly in blood plasma won't be recorded at all.

But a human which has been spcifically desanguinated with regards to red blood cells and whose oximeter is reading 0% would still be reasonably well oxygenated in 3 atm overpressure of pure oxygen (provided that he is replenished with fluid to compensate for the lost blood volume).

Don't just ask what scientists can do to speed up the solution for ALS or when they will do it, instead ask yourself what you can do right now to solve ALS asap.

Nem, are u sure? I believe they are talking about 02 saturation in the blood, which my oxygen meter ( clip on ) detects. I know John is talking about 02 versus oxygen levels which if they are to low, is bad news. . I'll bow out . I may be off topic.

Olly, considering your professional background in deep sea diving, I can't possibly think of anyone better suited to make a more detailed specification of the devices (and suppliers) required to construct a DIY ambulatory hyperbaric oxygen treatment device (AHBO).

Even I can start by listing the basic specification:

A) a flask of oxygen suitable for human consumption.

B) a tight fitting breathing mask similar to those used in deep sea diving.

C) a manometer and a regulator capable of providing 02 at 2-3 atm pressure to the mask.


How difficult can it be? I mean, as soon as we have the identified the appropriate gear, we can ask Ron to be sponsor and our first human guinea pig for testing AHBO + OSC for the treatment of ALS.

Hello Louis

Claustrophobia is a terrible sensation but you can get modern 'therapies' that can get rid of it......if the poly tent is no good.

D.

After studying it, I realize it may not be what we want. It's mainly intended for skin treatments. Unless it can fit around the head and provide oxygen to the lungs under pressure, it won't work for us. However, it may give us ideas on how to make one at home. Someone should make an inflatable see-through bag that surrounds the head and fits snugly around the neck.

Louis

Nem,
breathing pure oxygen through a mask at normal atmospheric pressure will fully saturate the blood and tissues. Doing it in a chamber just speeds the saturation process up..
Think of it this way - air is roughly 79% nitrogen and 21% oxygen. So in normal breathing a considerable amount of nitrogen is in the blood plasma, tissues, organs and bones.
When you breath pure Oxygen the nitrogen slowly get replaced with Oxygen and the nitrogen slowly comes out of all the relevant body parts. Not sure how long it takes but it's slow at 1 atmospheric pressure.
Nitrogen gets into the tissues by a number of routes including air swallowing and lung exchange. Blood itself is saturated very quickly but replacing all the other gases in tissues etc takes time.

The bends are when extra gas bubbles out of the blood and tissues when you change depth, coming up, from a dive under pressure.Bit like a bottle of soda po. When the bottle is kept still you don't see anything but just shake it and the extra CO2 bubbles out.

wITH any type of mask you should ensure that your exhaled breath containing CO" is washed out of the masked by the pressure of the incoming Oxygen. That means there will always be Oxygen leaking from around the mask. Be careful, and ensure no naked flame, no grease or oil is on the mask etc.
Warning pure oxygen should be handled with extreme caution. In contact with oil/grease it may exploded or catch fire and if released into confined spaces can cause spontaneous combustion.
When setting up any O2 cylinders have a look at the thread connectors and make sure they are clean from oil, grease dirt etc. When attaching a pressure guage and when first opening the gauge to check pressure do NOT look at the gauge directly but from the side. Gauges have exploded in the past and the glass front will shoot off at extreme speed.
Have a fire extinguisher handy

Remember pure Oxygen killed those three guys in that NASA space capsule prior to launching, due to an electrical fault in pure oxygen causinga flash fire.

Incidently if you uses google look for Bibs masks for DDC's or dive chambers as that is the sort of masks we use. It has a O2 input line and an exhalation line or it can be used without the exhalation line as the mask has one way rubber exhaust valves to get rid of the CO2.

Into the heart, an air that kills, from yon far country blows.
What are those blue remembered hills, what sphires what farms are those.
That is the land of lost content,I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went and cannot come again

Here is a copy of the old Biomaxx website from 2010 (from the Wayback Machine) with some info (views) on the priciples for infusion and mechansims of action of WF10.

I believe that the alledgely crooked and unethical Mr./Dr. Trogisch (see above) may have been so in the sense that he actually treated people, rather than denied them treatment, but charged accordingly.

That would be in complete analogy with the Borrelia doctors that operating in Germany currently also are doing with patients from all over Europe.

I'm questioning how Dr. Friedrich-Wilhelm Kuehne can be absolutely certain that Mr./Dr. Trogisch hasn't treated a single ALS patient with WF10 or even with the combo of WF10 and oxygen ( see above) solely on the basis that they stopped supplying WF10 to him.

For all we know the alledgedly crooked and unethical Mr./Dr. Trogisch may have procured WF10 by proxy or even mixed it up all by himself, judging form his apparent insights in its composition and his alledged ways of working.

Jan, your blood must be tested within 24 hours from when it's drawn or the Lyme test will be inaccurate. That's a fact most people dont know. I'll say right now u will be positive, and bet a 100. The tests are very inaccurate and 75% of people who take them come back positive. Don't waste your time. Antibiotics will kill your ass. Don't go that route.

Hello Nemesis,





While pulse oximetry doesn't measure oxygen directly, it is used as a reasonable approximation of arterial oxygen saturation.

The "qualifiers" are listed in this chapter on critical care usage of the oximeter.

http://www.aacn.org/WD/Practice/Docs/ch_14_PO.pdf

It looks like even though it doesn't measure directly, if you follow the rules you can get a very good approximation of oxygen levels in the blood using oximetry.

Well folks I decided to pick up where Louis left off. As I write this I am infusing myself with sodium chlorite.

I added 4 ml of 5% sodium chlorite to a 500 ml IV bag of 0.9% sodium chloride. I will infuse this over about 2 hours. I added the sodium chlorite to the bag last night just to allow the chlorite to sterilize any contamination I might have introduced. I am not worried about this really as my sterility test of a previously prepared bag showed that the bag was sterile.

Yesterday I infused myself with 40 ml of WF10 so I could compare the two. I felt no side effects yesterday, and so far feel no side effects. I am about half way done with the infusion.

I will keep you posted throughout the day.

Cheers,

Ben
