Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Brain Damage.
Abstract: Cerebral contusions are one the most frequent traumatic lesions and the most common indication for secondary surgical decompression. The purpose of this study was to investigate the physiology of perilesional secondary brain damage and evaluate the value of...
Abstract: The goal of this study was to investigate the reliability of the multi-parameter sensor NeuroTrend in a hyperbaric environment for up to 3bar absolute pressure. Measurement of brain tissue oxygenation (ptiO2) under hyperbaric conditions is supposed to...
Abstract Individuals sustaining mild traumatic brain injuries often report a constellation of physical, cognitive, and emotional/behavioral symptoms referred to as post concussion symptoms (PCS). The most commonly reported post concussion symptoms are headache,...
Abstract: This review sought to determine the strength of the scientific evidence relating to the therapeutic use of hyperbaric oxygen for traumatic brain injury or stroke. In order to reduce the possibility of omitting relevant human clinical trials, parallel...

Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy has been found to reduce intracranial and cerebrospinal fluid pressures, and increase grey matter metabolic activity in patients with brain injuries. To date, few studies have quantitatively assessed the changes in the...
Abstract: We report a 21-year-old man who experienced symptoms of colitis following autologous TBI-conditioned PBSC transplantation, which persisted despite conventional treatment. Abdominal echography showed a thickened, stratified wall of the cecum, of the right...
Abstract: Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging allows volumetric quantification of a variety of neuroanatomical structures using two dimensional (2D) images as well as three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the brain and any of its constituent parts. Three-dimensional...
Abstract: Sixty cases of diffuse axonal injury were analysed in this paper. All cases were caused by traffic accident; the mortality was 53.12%. Clinical manifestations were post-traumatic immediate and continuous coma with severe dysfunction of brain stem. MRI is...
