Evidence Brief

Résumé du livre

The ESP Coordinating Center (ESP CC) is responding to a request from the Center for Compassionate Innovation (CCI) for an evidence brief on the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to treat Veterans with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in whom other treatments have not been successful. Findings from this evidence brief will be used to inform considerations of clinical use of HBOT in Veterans with TBI and/or PTSD. The aim of this evidence brief is to evaluate the potential impact of HBOT on TBI and/or PTSD on certain clinically important benefits and harms and evaluate whether they differ based on patient characteristics and variation in HBOT protocol.
