Hyperbaric oxygen for veterans with lasting brain injury symptoms
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether breathing pure oxygen inside a pressurized chamber (hyperbaric oxygen therapy) can help reduce long-term symptoms after a mild or moderate traumatic brain injury. It is for veterans and service members who have had a TBI at least one year ago and are still struggling with symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a U.S. veteran or service member, 18 to 75 years old.
- You had a mild or moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI) at least one year ago, and you still have symptoms like trouble thinking, headaches, or mood changes.
- You can lie flat for one hour while receiving treatment in a pressurized chamber.
- You do not have certain health conditions like untreated asthma, epilepsy, recent collapsed lung, or heart failure.
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant during the study.

This trial tests whether breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber (hyperbaric oxygen therapy) helps people recover from traumatic brain injury. It aims to see if this treatment is safe and can improve healing for patients starting rehabilitation.
This study follows veterans who previously finished a 40-session hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) program. It tracks how their memory, mood, and daily function are doing 12 weeks later, to understand long-term benefits.
This Phase 2 trial studies whether breathing oxygen in a pressurized chamber can improve outcomes after a severe traumatic brain injury. It is mainly for people with very low consciousness levels soon after injury, with careful safety checks.
This trial looks at blood “biomarkers,” or lab measurements, while people receive hyperbaric oxygen treatment for brain injury as part of the main HOBIT study. It may help researchers understand who benefits and why by improving how treatment responses are tracked.
This trial tests if combining water-based exercise with cognitive training over eight months can help improve thinking and memory in veterans with a past mild or moderate brain injury. It may benefit veterans aged 50-89 who have ongoing cognitive complaints.
This study tests a non-trauma therapy for PTSD in veterans and service members who also have a mild or moderate brain injury. It aims to help with PTSD symptoms without focusing on the traumatic event itself.
