Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) demonstrates potential as a treatment for long-term effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI), though its effectiveness in this area is debated.
A study reviewed the outcomes of 17 TBI patients who completed up to 120 sessions of HBOT, showing significant improvements in cognitive assessments and cerebral function.
The therapy was deemed safe, with only one patient experiencing new headaches leading to withdrawal, suggesting HBOT could be beneficial for managing TBI-related complications.
