Hyperbaric Oxygen for Traumatic and Non-traumatic Brain Injury

The purpose of this study is to examine whether 40 hyperbaric oxygen sessions has effect on long-term symptoms after brain injury. This study will enroll 90 individuals with persistent problems 6 months to 10 years after a brain injury. These individuals will be randomized to receive either oxygen or air in a pressurized hyperbaric chamber. Participants will receive 40 daily hyperbaric chamber sessions. Participants will have a series of tests and questionnaires before they begin their chamber sessions, after they complete 40 sessions, and 6 months after they joined the study. These tests include computer-based and pencil-and-paper questionnaires and thinking tests, brain imaging, a neurological examination, and an eye exam. Participants will also be asked to provide blood for future research. After the 6-month tests are complete, all participants will receive 40 hyperbaric oxygen sessions, then undergo the same tests at 9 months and 12 months.
