High Concentration Oxygen Therapy for Pneumocephalus in Chronic Subdural Haematoma: A Prospective Observational Study

NCT05143216 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 23

Last updated 2022-07-28

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Normobaric oxygen therapy was shown to be effective in reducing post craniotomy pneumocephalus. Theoretical assessment of normobaric oxygen therapy in treating pneumocephalus has shown that a higher level of oxygen concentration will significantly decrease the time for absorption of pneumocephalus. The therapeutic efficacy is not fully established in patients with chronic subdural hematoma after burr hole drainage. Both radiological outcomes and clinical outcomes would be evaluated.
