Results

Nineteen patients were subjected to complete analysis. No adverse events were observed. Arterial and expired gas analyses revealed no adverse systemic effects including hypercapnia. The mean ratio of blood flow 20 min after CO2 therapy compared with the pre-treatment level increased by approximately 2-fold in a time-dependent manner.

Baseline Characteristics

Twenty patients were enrolled to the trial in accordance with the study design. One of the patients dropped out. Therefore, all analyses were conducted using the data obtained from the remaining 19 patients. Of the 19 patients for whom complete data analyses were performed, 13 were men and six were women, with a mean age of 48.7 years and mean body mass index of 25.6.

Participant flow

Patients with fractures of the femur and tibia were prospectively enrolled into this study with ethical approval and informed consent. The CO2 absorption-enhancing hydrogel was applied to the fractured lower limbs of patients, and then 100% CO2 was administered daily into a sealed space for 20 min over 4 weeks postoperatively.

Adverse events

None

Outcome measures

Safety was assessed based on vital signs, blood parameters, adverse events, and arterial and expired gas analyses. As the efficacy outcome, blood flow at the level of the fracture site and at a site 5 cm from the fracture in the affected limb was measured using a laser Doppler blood flow meter.
