Eden’s case study may help to expand this list, making HBOT more accessible for others. In the interim, Eden’s responses to normobaric and hyperbaric oxygen therapies support earlier research of their effects on brain damage and disease. (7, 8, 9, 10)
HBOT is used to treat a variety of conditions in addition to those mentioned above (8,9):
- air or gas embolism
- carbon monoxide poisoning
- compartment syndrome/crush injury/other traumatic ischemias (inadequate blood supply)
- decompression sickness (bends)
- diabetic and other wound healing
- exceptional blood loss (anemia)
- gas gangrene
- intracranial abscess
- soft tissue infection
- radiation bone and tissue damage
- bone infection (refractory)
- skin grafts and compromised flaps
- thermal burns
- Lyme disease
- migraine
- multiple sclerosis
- recovery from plastic surgery
- sports injuries
- candida overgrowth
- concussion
