Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for long COVID brain fog
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests if hyperbaric oxygen therapy (breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber) helps with long COVID symptoms, especially brain fog and thinking problems. It may be an option if you have had lingering symptoms for at least 2 months and can travel to one of the study sites.
