Hyperbaric oxygen and focused rehabilitation program: a feasibility study in improving upper limb motor function after stroke
Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Ahead of Print. Neuroplasticity and recovery after stroke can be enhanced by a rehabilitation program pertinent to upper limb motor function exercise and mental imagery (EMI) as well as hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). We assessed feasibility and safety of the combined approach utilizing both HBOT and EMI, and to derive preliminary estimates of its efficacy. In this randomized controlled trial, 27 patients with upper extremity hemiparesis at 3 –48 months after stroke were randomized to receive either a complementary rehabilitation program of HBOT-EMI (intervention group), o...
