This study aims to assess the impact of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on a number of outcomes, including epigenetic aging, inflammation, and cellular health.
While current research has identified many mechanisms of action, effects and cell signaling benefits resulting from HBOT, we do not have a firm understanding of the timeframe and dosage for many of these expected adaptations. Data from this study will be collected and shared on an ongoing basis throughout the course of care. This research project will help us to confirm these cell-signaling changes and benefits, and also develop a better understanding of the necessary PO2 and time frame required in order to achieve these changes leading to improved patient outcomes in the field of hyperbaric medicine.

Time frame: Testing will compare baseline with 6 months
Neurotrax
Brain Care brain fitness tests follow the neuropsychological tradition by measuring: Memory, Executive Function, Attention, Visual Spatial, Verbal Function, Problem Solving, Working Memory. These tests are performed on a computer through a secure online assessment procedure. The scores on these tests are aggregated to create on measure of brain fitness
Time frame: Testing will compare baseline with 6 months
