Improved subjective recovery with hyperbaric oxygen but no influence on markers of cellular damage or hormone levels

Clinical bottom line:

1.Hyperbaric oxygen was not associated with any objective differences in serum hormones or markers of cellular damage.

2. There were improvements in the subjective reporting of the degree of recovery following hyperbaric oxygen exposures.

'Three-part Clinical Question:'For Jui-Jitsu athletes, does the administration of hyperbaric oxygen following training sessions compared to rest, result in any effect on hormone concentrations or biochemical markers of cellular damage?

'Search Terms:'Exercise, recovery, martial arts

The Study: Non-blinded randomised controlled trial with intention-to-treat.

The Study Patients: Adult male Jui-Jitsu athletes in regular training three times each week and without a current injury

Control group'(N = 11; 11 analysed): Passive recovery for 2 hours after two separate training sessions.

Experimental group (N = 11; 11 analysed): Breathing 100% oxygen at 2.4 ATA for one hour and 40 minutes after two separate training sessions, followed by a further 1 hour and 40 minute recovery period.

Comments

1. Crossover study with no attempt to blind participants or experimenters.Comments:

2. Thorough statistical approach with ANOVA and post-hoc Bonferroni correction. The meaning if the difference between groups used to calculate sample size is not clear.

3. Authors emphasise the biochemical results over the subjective outcomes.

4. The improvement in subjective recovery scores at 24 hours seems very modest and may be of little practical importance.

5. Lack of blinding may have influenced the subjective outcome.
