What are the advantages of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for craniocerebral injury?

The advantages of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for craniocerebral injury mainly include the following: 1. Rapidly increases partial pressure of oxygen: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can rapidly elevate arterial blood oxygen partial pressure, increase blood and tissue oxygen content, significantly improve cerebral hypoxia, and facilitate recovery of brain function. 2. Reduces cerebral edema: In a hyperbaric oxygen environment, cerebral blood vessels constrict, leading to decreased cerebral blood flow, which effectively reduces cerebral edema and intracranial pressure. 3. Promotes awakening: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can activate the ascending reticular activating system of the brainstem and has a significant awakening effect on comatose patients. 4. Promotes nerve cell repair: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy helps improve axonal growth of nerve cells, enhances the growth rate of nerve fibers, accelerates lesion clearance and hematoma absorption, and promotes repair of brain tissue. 5. Improves prognosis: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is of great significance in improving the prognosis and increasing the cure rate of patients with traumatic brain injury.
