Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Induces Late Neuroplasticity in Post Stroke Patients - Randomized, Prospective Trial

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) could activate neuroplasticity in patients with chronic neurologic deficiencies due to stroke.

Recovery after stroke correlates with non-active (stunned) brain regions, which may persist for years. The current study aimed to evaluate whether increasing the level of dissolved oxygen by Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) could activate neuroplasticity in patients with chronic neurologic deficiencies due to stroke.

For the first time, convincing results demonstrating that HBOT can induce significant neurological improvement in post stroke patients. The neurological improvements in a chronic late stage demonstrate that neuroplasticity can be operative and activated by HBOT even long after acute brain insult. Thus, the findings have important implications that can be of general relevance and interest in neurobiology. Although this study focused on stroke patients, the findings bear the promise that HBOT may serve as a valuable therapeutic practice in other neurological disorders exhibiting discrepancy between the anatomical and functional evaluation of the brain.

India. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) & Stroke

When the blood flow to the brain tissue is interrupted due to either an ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke the oxygen supply to the neurons in the brain is cut-off.

The decreased blood supply to the brain can occur for three reasons:

1) Ischemia – lack of blood flow caused by narrowing or blockage of an artery

2) Embolism – blood clot that sometimes blocks an artery & cuts off blood flow

3) Hemorrhage – bleeding within the brain No matter what causes a stroke, the result is a localized area of damage in the brain called an infarct.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) works by saturating a person’s blood and plasma with oxygen resulting in increased oxygen delivery to tissues. In fact, because HBOT forces oxygen into the body under pressure, oxygen dissolves into all of the body’s fluids including the blood plasma, the lymph, and the cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. All of these fluids carry the extra oxygen to the tissues and cells of the body, even where circulation is poor or blocked.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) provides the oxygen necessary to keep the neurons alive and functioning. In addition, HBOT significantly increases the stem cells in the blood that are mobilized from the bone marrow by 800%. These new cells move to the brain and contribute to the growth of new neurons and recovery from the stroke.

What benefits can I expect from oxygen therapy for stroke?

* Relief of oxygen starvation or hypoxia and activates dormant neurons in the

penumbra zone.

* Increased microcirculation or capillary development to increase blood flow.

* Decreased brain swelling or edema by constricting nearby blood vessels.

* Reduction of free radicals that continue to cause tissue damage.

* Stimulation of nerve impulses through the brain and spinal cord.

* Protection of the integrity of cell membranes so they can function properly.

* Relief of muscle spasticity.

* Reduces stroke recurrences

The most important criteria being, for stroke survivors, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy reactivates the idling neurons, stimulates growth of new blood vessels, prevents cell death, and improves neurological function.

The usual oxygen therapy is once daily, five days a week for eight weeks.

India. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) chamber can boost brain repair years after stroke or trauma:

Through the use of hyperbaric, oxygen-rich chambers, medical researchers have found a way to restore a significant amount of neurological function in brain tissue thought to be chronically damaged by stroke, traumatic injury, and metabolic disorder even years after the original injury.

Stroke, traumatic injury, and metabolic disorder are major causes of brain damage and permanent disabilities, including motor dysfunction, psychological disorders, memory loss, and more. Current therapy and rehab programs aim to help patients heal, but they often have limited success.

The tenfold increase in oxygen levels during HBOT treatment supplies the necessary energy for rebuilding neuronal connections and stimulating inactive neurons to facilitate the healing process, explains Dr. Efrati…..
