Could a common steroid stop brain damage after carbon monoxide poisoning?

NCT ID NCT06574048

Summary

This study is testing if adding a steroid medication (dexamethasone) to the standard high-pressure oxygen treatment helps people recover better from carbon monoxide poisoning. Researchers want to see if this combination can prevent or reduce long-term brain problems like memory loss or movement issues that sometimes develop weeks after poisoning. The trial will involve 20 adults hospitalized for poisoning, comparing those who get the steroid with those who get a placebo during their oxygen treatments.
