Abstract: Objective To investigate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen( HBO) in craniotomy for traumatic brain injury. Methods The 90 patients with traumatic brain injury who received craniotomy in our hospital from March 2012 to September 2014 were divided into the obser-vation group(51 cases) which received HBO therapy additionally and the control group(39 cases). The remission rate of brain edema,GCS score,incidence of lung infection,infarction incidence and subdural effusion incidence at the same course of HBO treatment between the two groups were observed and compared. Rsults The remission rate of cerebral edema of observation group was higher than that of control group after a course of HBO treatment. And 6 days,9 days,12 days and 15 days after the course of HBO treatment,the GCS scores of observation group/control group were 8. 2/7. 8,9. 8/9. 0,11. 2/10. 3 and 12. 2/12. 0,respectively. The lung infection incidence of study group was lower than that of control group. Conclusion HBO treatment can improve the remission rate of brain edema and GCS scores, and it can reduce lung infection incidence in craniotomy for traumatic brain injury.
