Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Compared to Cognitive Training in FASD

概要

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) describes a wide range of adverse physical, behavioral and cognitive effects resulting from prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) during embryonic and fetal development. A number of clinical studies have presented evidence regarding the physiological effects of HBOT on metabolically dysfunctional brain regions that might be related to FASD. The aim of the study is to compare the effect of HBOT vs. neurocognitive training on neurobehavioral function in FASD.
