SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USING HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY FOR TREATING CONCUSSIVE SYMPTOMS AND MUSCULOSKELETAL INJURIES AND FOR PRE-TREATMENT TO PREVENT DAMAGE FROM INJURIES
A system and method are provided for performing hyperbaric oxygen therapy treatment to stop a cascading effect of an inflammatory response to an injury. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is performed during the inflammation to suppress the release of cytokines, most preferably, within 72 hours of sustaining the injury. Subject to evaluation of the patient, at least a second hyperbaric oxygen therapy treatment is performed.
