Measure
HBO2 at 1.5 Atomspheres Absolute (ATA)
Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) at 1.5 atms. Stratified by site and time from injury (less than one year versus one year or more), in which participants are randomized. Each participant will complete 40 sessions, one session per day, five sessions per week, within 12 weeks following randomization. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) at 1.5 atms: The Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) at 1.5 atms (active) group (hyperbaric oxygen-chamber compressed to 1.5 atm abs and breathing 100% oxygen). Each participant should complete 40 sessions over the course of 12 weeks, one session per day, five per week.
Sham Control (1.2 Atomspheres)
Sham control 1.2 atms. Each participant will complete 40 sessions, one session per day, five sessions per week, within 12 weeks following randomization. Breathing air at a pressure of 1.2 atm abs is equivalent to inhaling 25% oxygen at sea level pressure (1.0 atm abs). Sham control 1.2 atms: The chamber will be compressed with air to 1.2 atm abs to simulate the active group. Participants will don a hood and breathe 21% oxygen (room air). Each participant will complete 40 sessions, one session per day, five sessions per week, within 12 weeks following randomization. Breathing air at a pressure of 1.2 atm abs is equivalent to inhaling 25% oxygen at sea level pressure (1.0 atm abs).

Timeframe: Baseline

RPQ/RPQ-3 was created to measure the severity of post-concussion symptoms following traumatic brain injury. Scale compares any current symptoms to pre-injury levels to account for potential symptom exacerbation due to the TBI. The RPQ is the most commonly used clinical measure for mild TBI research because it is simple and reflects psychosocial function. The RPQ is intended to measure the presence and severity of 16 of the most commonly reported post-concussion symptoms found in the literature. The RPQ scale includes 16 common post-concussion symptom items whose responses range from "0= Not experienced at" to "4= A severe problem". Total range is 0 to 64. RPQ-3 ranges from 0-12 and access a subset of symptoms. RPQ-13 ranges from 0-52 and access's 13 remaining symptoms. Analyses of the RPQ-3 and RPQ-13 domain scores are presented separately. For each of the RPQ-3, RPQ-13, and RPQ total scales, the scores were derived by totaling the corresponding question scores for each domain.

Population: PP was defined as subs who completed 20 chamber sessions and week13 f/u. PP was also restricted to subs who didn't report illicit drug use following randomization. 67 subs satisfied the PP, 35/36 HBO2 and 32/35 sham. 4 were excluded from the PP population, 3 excluded because they completed \<20 sessions,1 because of illicit drug use during study.

Sham control 1.2 atms. Each participant will complete 40 sessions, one session per day, five sessions per week, within 12 weeks following randomization. Breathing air at a pressure of 1.2 atm abs is equivalent to inhaling 25% oxygen at sea level pressure (1.0 atm abs). Sham control 1.2 atms: The chamber will be compressed with air to 1.2 atm abs to simulate the active group. Participants will don a hood and breathe 21% oxygen (room air). Each participant will complete 40 sessions, one session per day, five sessions per week, within 12 weeks following randomization.

RPQ-3 was created to measure the severity of post-concussion symptoms following traumatic brain injury. Scale compares any current symptoms to pre-injury levels to account for potential symptom exacerbation due to the TBI. The RPQ is the most commonly used clinical measure for mild TBI research because it is simple and reflects psychosocial function. The RPQ is intended to measure the presence and severity of 16 of the most commonly reported post-concussion symptoms found in the literature. The RPQ scale includes 16 common post-concussion symptom items whose responses range from "0= Not experienced at" to "4= A severe problem". Total range is 0 to 64. RPQ-3 ranges from 0-12 and access a subset of symptoms. Analyses of the RPQ-3 domain scores are presented separately. For the RPQ-3 total scales, the scores were derived by totaling the corresponding question scores for each domain and it's change from baseline.

n=35 Participants
Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) at 1.5 atms. Stratified by site and time from injury (less than one year versus one year or more), in which participants are randomized. Each participant will complete 40 sessions, one session per day, five sessions per week, within 12 weeks following randomization. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) at 1.5 atms: The Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) at 1.5 atms (active) group (hyperbaric oxygen-chamber compressed to 1.5 atm abs and breathing 100% oxygen). Each participant should complete 40 sessions over the course of 12 weeks, one session per day, five per week.
Sham Control (1.2 Atomspheres)
n=32 Participants
Sham control 1.2 atms. Each participant will complete 40 sessions, one session per day, five sessions per week, within 12 weeks following randomization. Breathing air at a pressure of 1.2 atm abs is equivalent to inhaling 25% oxygen at sea level pressure (1.0 atm abs). Sham control 1.2 atms: The chamber will be compressed with air to 1.2 atm abs to simulate the active group. Participants will don a hood and breathe 21% oxygen (room air). Each participant will complete 40 sessions, one session per day, five sessions per week, within 12 weeks following randomization. Breathing air at a pressure of 1.2 atm abs is equivalent to inhaling 25% oxygen at sea level pressure (1.0 atm abs).

Population: PP was defined as subs who completed 20 chamber sessions and week13 f/u. PP was also restricted to subs who didn't report illicit drug use following randomization. 67 subs satisfied the PP, 35/36 HBO2 and 32/35 sham. 4 were excluded from the PP population, 3 excluded because they completed \<20 sessions,1 because of illicit drug use during study.

RPQ-3 was created to measure the severity of post-concussion symptoms following traumatic brain injury. Scale compares any current symptoms to pre-injury levels to account for potential symptom exacerbation due to the TBI. The RPQ is the most commonly used clinical measure for mild TBI research because it is simple and reflects psychosocial function. The RPQ is intended to measure the presence and severity of 16 of the most commonly reported post-concussion symptoms found in the literature. The RPQ scale includes 16 common post-concussion symptom items whose responses range from "0= Not experienced at" to "4= A severe problem". Total range is 0 to 64. RPQ-3 ranges from 0-12 and access a subset of symptoms. Analyses of the RPQ-3 domain scores are presented separately. For the RPQ-3 total scales, the scores were derived by totaling the corresponding question scores for each domain and change from baseline.
