Investigation of the Effect of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in Patients With Avascular Necrosis

Avascular necrosis is a condition that occurs when bone tissue loses sufficient blood flow. This condition causes bone cells to die and, as a result, bone structure to deteriorate. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a treatment method used in patients with avascular necrosis. Avascular necrosis can significantly affect the quality of life of patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on physical capacity, depressive symptoms, and quality of life in patients diagnosed with avascular necrosis.
