Case Information
31-year-old Ms. Wang suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and underwent "cerebral hematoma evacuation and decompressive craniectomy". 35 days after the operation, she still had impaired consciousness, was unable to speak, and had no movement in her limbs, so she was transferred to our department.
Upon admission, we administered comprehensive medical treatment along with hyperbaric oxygen therapy. After 8 sessions of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, her consciousness improved: she could visually track objects, became emotionally excited when seeing her family members, and was able to vocalize. After 13 sessions of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, she could raise his left thumb to give a "thumbs up", answer simple questions, and was subsequently discharged from the hospital.
Warm Reminder
The remarkable effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy aid in the early recovery of patients with cerebral hemorrhage.
Mechanisms of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy:
Alleviates cerebral edema and reduces intracranial pressure.
Reduces the degeneration and necrosis of brain cells, accelerating the repair of brain tissue.
Promotes the regeneration of collagen fibers and capillaries, accelerating the repair of lesions.
Improves the function of the reticular activating system, which is beneficial for the recovery of the patient's consciousness.
