Military plans to test brain-injury treatments using hyperbaric chambers
Posted on Thursday, April 8th, 2010 at 7:50 am
Beginning next year, the U.S. military will begin researching the use of pure oxygen and hyperbaric chambers in the treatment of brain injuries for soldiers who have suffered traumatic brain injuries. The hyperbaric oxygen therapy will be tested on 300 U.S. soldiers with varying degrees of brain injury to discover if the treatment can help treat or reduce the painful symptoms associated with brain trauma.
Severe head trauma may result in lasting brain injuries and reduced ability to perform important daily tasks. For more information on brain injuries and personal injury claims, contact the New Jersey brain injury attorneys of Levinson Axelrod at 800-346-5529 today.
