Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Brain Damage.
Abstract Background: The complex interaction of human, vehicle and environmental factors along with a lack of sustainable preventive programs has contributed to the "silent epidemic" of traumatic brain injuries (TBI). TBI poses a grave threat to the quality-of-life...
Abstract: Background Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and residual postconcussion syndrome (PCS) are common among combatants of the recent military conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) is a proposed treatment but has not been rigorously...
Abstract: To systematically review the evidence for rest, treatment, and rehabilitation after sport-related concussion. Nine databases including PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Sport Discus, and Web of Science were searched for studies that...
Abstract: Many studies suggest that hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) can provide some clinically curative effects on blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI). The specific mechanism by which this occurs still remains unknown, and no standardized time or course of...
