NCT ID NCT07430150
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study follows 100 adults who had a traumatic brain injury and completed 60 sessions of hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Researchers will test their thinking, memory, and quality of life 1 to 4 years later to see if improvements stick. The goal is to understand the long-term effects of this treatment.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- hyperbaric oxygen therapy
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that hyperbaric oxygen therapy provides lasting cognitive improvements for TBI patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational follow-up, not a new treatment test. Results may not apply to all TBI patients, and cognitive changes could be due to natural recovery.
