Hyperbaric oxygen for sailors' training fatigue
Part of Injuries & trauma, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether breathing pure oxygen in a special chamber (hyperbaric oxygen therapy) can help top-level sailors recover faster from the tiredness caused by intense training. If the therapy works, it could become a new way to help athletes bounce back quicker and perform better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a male, top-level sailor between the ages of 18 and 35.
- You hold at least a national first-class athlete certificate (or a higher-level one).
- You have at least 5 years of professional sailing training experience.
- You currently train at least 5 times a week.
- You must not have heart, lung, or brain disease, or other health conditions that make hyperbaric oxygen therapy unsafe.
- You should not be taking any medicines or supplements that could affect your recovery or heart rate control, and you must not join other recovery programs during the study.

This study tests how breathing higher-than-normal levels of oxygen for a short time after a hard bike ride affects your recovery. It is designed for competitive road cyclists who want to recover faster and perform better in their next training or race.
This study compares two ways of training the body for better aerobic fitness: short, controlled low-oxygen workouts versus treatment in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber. It may help athletes improve endurance, measured by their breathing and fitness performance.
This study tests whether exercising in a high-oxygen environment can help build stronger muscles faster. Researchers will have you do resistance training (like weightlifting) in a special chamber with extra oxygen to see if it boosts your muscle gains.
This study tests whether breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber can reduce fatigue and improve symptoms in people with mild-to-moderate chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). The therapy may help your body recover better by increasing oxygen supply to affected tissues.
This trial is testing whether breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber (called hyperbaric oxygen therapy) can improve your fitness and lower inflammation. You may qualify if you’re a healthy, active adult aged 30–60.
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.
