  • Title: [Percutaneous oximetry assessment of oxygen pressure in feet with spastic hemiparesis following stroke].
    Author: Pruszyński J, Jedrkiewicz H, Gross R, Wróblewski T.
    Journal: Neurol Neurochir Pol; 1995; 29(2):159-63. PubMed ID: 7651588.
    Abstract:
    In the period 1988-1993 at the Geriatrics Department percutaneous oximetric determinations of oxygen pressure were done in 40 patients with spastic hemiparesis after stroke. The obtained results indicated a lower pressure of oxygen in the foot of the paretic extremity as compared with contralateral extremity. This suggests a relationship between the degree of oxygen supply to the tissues and the side of hemiparesis following stroke.
