The Profile of Cognitive Function of Patients Who Had Neurocognitive Evaluation at the Sagol Center for Hyperbaric Medicine and Research
In the investigator's institute there is ongoing treatment of different patients with cognitive deficits using Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). These patients undergo neuro-cognitive function computerized tests before and after treatment.
The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the cognitive changes before and after HBOT in different patients populations.
Retrospective analysis of patients suffering from chronic neuro-cognitive deficits due to different conditions, treated at Sagol center for hyperbaric medicine and research, Shamir (Assaf Harofeh) Medical Center, Israel
