Evidence link: to evidence-based review of many HBOT indications | (MD thesis of Mike Bennett)
Latest CATSNew evidence that HBO is effective for radiation cystitis (Oscarsson 2019) A single HBO session altered pain perception for at least one month after experimental burn injury (Wahl 2019) Pooled analysis suggests there is some justification for further studies into the use of HBOT for PTSD after mild head trauma (Hart 2019). Critical flicker fusion frequency testing may indicate cognitive decline in IGN (Lafere 2019).New evidence that unresolving athletic injuries may improve with HBOT (Chen 2019).
Planned study to compare HBOT and PENTOCLO regimen (Bulsara 2019).Papers awaiting appraisal: A list of published RCTs we have not got around to yet (take that as an invitation!).
