Discussion

Retrospective cohort study shows cognitive improvement in adults with post-concussion syndrome, suggesting HBOT's potential benefits.

Significant improvements in cognitive function were observed in adults receiving HBOT after childhood TBI.
Participants showed enhanced global cognition, memory, executive function, attention, and processing speed, with adjusted p < 0.05.
The analysis involved 26 adults who underwent at least 40 sessions of HBOT, regardless of time since injury.
Findings support the potential role of HBOT in the long-term rehabilitation of cognitive impairments from pediatric TBI.

Shlifer et al. (2025) studied this question.
