Investigational Diseases and Conditions
The hyperbaric medical community is actively investigating the efficacy of HBOT to treat a broad range of diseases and conditions.
As the scientific debates and clinical trials continue, many practitioners prescribe hyperbaric oxygen therapy for off-label indications, including:
- Asphyxiation
- Coma
- Crohn’s disease
- Diabetes
- Drug/Alcohol detox
- Encephalopathy
- Hearing loss
- Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
- Mitochondrial disease
- Near drowning
- Near hanging
- Parkinson's disease
- Physical rehabilitation
- Poisoning
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD)
- Spinal cord injury
- Sports injuries
- Tinnitus
- Vertigo
Clinical evidence ranges from scant to compelling. None is approved by the UHMS or covered by most healthcare payers.
