Abstract: Post concussion syndrome (PCS) is a set of symptoms succeeding in 25 % of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) patients. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been demonstrated as an effective method for treating acute and severe TBI, but its efficacy in PCS...
Abstract: Improvement has been anecdotally observed in patients with persistent postconcussion symptoms (PCS) after mild traumatic brain injury following treatment with hyperbaric oxygen (HBO). The effectiveness of HBO as an adjunctive treatment for PCS is unknown to...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy has been suggested a treatment option in order to reduce the development of secondary insults succeeding traumatic brain injury. This case report studied the course of a 23-year-old gentleman with a close range...
Abstract: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) affects a growing portion of the population and continues to take national spotlight with advances in imaging technology and understanding of long-term effects. However, there is large variance in TBI treatment protocols due to...
Abstract: The neuroprotective mechanisms of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy on traumatic brain injury (TBI) remain unclear, especially neuronal apoptosis associations such as the expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), transforming growth-interacting factor...
Abstract: The abnormal metabolic processes following traumatic brain injury (TBI) have been proposed to contribute to secondary injuries after TBI. Therefore, enteral nutrition (EN) support for TBI patients has received more attention. This study aimed to evaluate the...
Abstract: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity for millions of young people and military personnel around the world every year. Regardless of severity, neurological dysfunction is a sequela of TBI. Although many preclinical and...
Abstract: Unestablished indications are conditions in which systematic clinical use of hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) is not supported by adequate proof of benefit. HBOT is vulnerable to use in many such conditions for various reasons, perhaps the most important...
Abstract: The modern age of hyperbaric medicine began in 1937; however, today few know about hyperbaric oxygen's effects on the body and medical conditions outside of diving medicine and wound care centers - a serious ethical issue as there are 20 US military veterans...
Abstract: In this editorial, the value of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the management of chronic post-concussive syndrome following mild traumatic brain injury is discussed. Davis, Shoja, Tubbs, Griessenauer, , , , , (2014). Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for chronic...
