简要总结
This is a pilot trial to see if one or two 40 treatment courses of low pressure hyperbaric oxygen therapy can improve cognition and brain imaging in subjects with either chronic mild-moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI), also known as post-concussion syndrome (PCS) or chronic PCS with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) secondary to blast injury.
