Hyperbaric Oxygen Study Shows Potential Benefit for Patients With Traumatic Brain Injury
Every year, more than 1.4 million Americans sustain a traumatic brain injury (TBI) – the leading cause of
death and disability in children and young adults. Those who survive often face months or even years of
therapy, and sometimes the damage to the brain is irreversible. Decreased utilization of oxygenated
blood to brain tissue immediately after the injury is often to blame.
