In this study, a simple 10 day course of hyperbaric oxygen therapy was able to help promote the survival of transplanted fat <view study> Read Less

Persistent physical, neurocognitive, and neuropsychological symptoms are becoming more commonly seen following SARS-CoV-2 infection infections. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has shown promising results by providing a wide range of physiological benefits. In this study, a simple course of 40 HBOT sessions provided significant improvements; mainly in sleep, psychiatric symptoms, and pain.“These results indicate that HBOT can induce neuroplasticity and improve cognitive, psychiatric, fatigue, sleep and pain symptoms of patients suffering from post-COVID-19 condition”. <view study> Read Less

Mild traumatic brain injury to children can commonly lead to persistent post-concussion syndrome (PPCS). Symptoms can often include headaches, dizziness, sleep problems, difficulties with concentration and memory, mood or anxiety problems, and difficulty tolerating school or exercise. For the child, this can lead to serious long-term developmental consequences.

Post exercise recovery  plays an important role in the overall performance of athletes. This study evaluated the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (75 minutes at 1.3 ATA) following fatigue-inducing exercise on a group of training cyclists. Improvements were seen in cycling output power, along with HRV recovery. The results “suggests that HBO is an efficient strategy to improve cardiac parasympathetic reactivation and is beneficial for subsequent performance” <view study> Read Less
