What Researchers Did
Researchers investigated the therapeutic use of hyperbaric oxygenation as an adjunct treatment for patients experiencing ischaemic cerebral strokes.
What They Found
They found that hyperbaric oxygenation serves as a valuable adjunct to complex treatment regimens for patients with ischaemic cerebral strokes, including those who underwent surgery on cerebral vessels. The most significant therapeutic benefits were observed during the acute phase of a stroke, though its application also proved useful for many patients in the residual period.
