Can pressurized oxygen boost stroke recovery?
NCT ID NCT07049692
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests whether breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber (hyperbaric oxygen therapy) helps people recover better after a stroke. About 424 adults aged 35-75 who had a stroke and received endovascular treatment will be randomly assigned to get either hyperbaric oxygen sessions or standard care. The main goal is to see if more patients achieve functional independence 90 days later.
