Abstract：Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of hyperbaric oxygen(HBO)therapy for refractory peptic ulcer. Methods 51 patients with refractory peptic ulcer were randomly divided into HBO group and normal group. 2 courses of HBO therapy were administrated in HBO group in addition to normal therapy. Intertion status was estimated by gastroscopy and Hp infection was estimated by 14C breath test after therapy. Results Of the 24 cases in HBO group,20 cases cured,3 cases improved,and 1 case unrecovered,with Hp eradication rate 93. 75%(15 / 16). Of the 27 cases in normal group,13 cases cured,10 cases improved,and 4 cases unrecovered,with Hp eradication rate 58. 52%(10 / 17). There was a significant difference in ulcer healing rate and Hp eradication rate between these two groups(P ﹤ 0. 05). Conclusion Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is effective for refractory peptic ulcer.
