First seen Mar 01, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 10 times
Summary
This study looked at whether short sessions of breathing air with less oxygen (called Acute Intermittent Hypoxia) is safe for people who have had a traumatic brain injury (TBI). It also checked if this approach might help with memory, thinking, and movement. Twelve adults with mild to moderate TBI took part. The main goal was to see if the treatment caused any side effects, and the results will help guide future research.
