Résumé du livre
The Evidence Synthesis Program (ESP) Coordinating Center is responding to a request from the VA Health Services Research and Development Service for an update to the 2018 ESP evidence brief on the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to treat Veterans and non-Veterans with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and/or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), in response to the Commander John Scott Hannon Veterans Mental Health Care Improvement Act of 2019 ("Hannon Act"). A secondary aim of this update was to provide an overview of assessment tools for measuring TBI and PTSD symptoms. Findings from this evidence brief will be used to inform a report to the Committees on Veterans Affairs of the US Senate and the US House of Representatives in response to Section 702 of the Hannon Act.
