Whether patients with cerebral hemorrhage can do hyperbaric oxygen therapy should be based on the patient’s condition, generally in the acute stage of cerebral hemorrhage or the patient suffers from lung disease and other conditions can not do hyperbaric oxygen therapy, in the recovery period of cerebral hemorrhage can do hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
In the acute period of cerebral hemorrhage, i.e. 6 hours~2 weeks after the onset of the disease, the patient’s condition is prone to change in this period, and if hyperbaric oxygen is done, it may lead to recurrence of cerebral hemorrhage or large-scale thrombosis.
If the patient suffers from lung diseases, such as pneumothorax, hemothorax, and severe bronchial dilatation, hemoptysis, etc., it may cause further damage to the patient’s lungs in the process of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and even lead to aspiration and asphyxia.
If the contraindications to hyperbaric oxygen therapy are ruled out and the patient is in the recovery period, hyperbaric oxygen therapy can be performed, which can reduce cerebral edema, increase intracranial oxygen intake, and play a positive role in promoting the recovery of brain cell function.
Therefore, patients with cerebral hemorrhage should be treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy by a doctor after judging their condition and under the doctor’s guidance.
