Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a potential therapeutic modality that has been recognized for its favorable mechanisms in various diseases, including sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE). HBOT has neuroprotective effects through its anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic effects as well as increased tissue oxygenation capacity. However, there are caveats and limitations in applying HBOT in sepsis.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is being increasingly recognized as a potential therapeutic modality with favorable mechanisms in various diseases. HBOT has demonstrated anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic effects as well as increased the oxygenation capacity of oxygen-deprived tissues, thus contributing to tissue homeostasis. Focusing on these mechanisms, HBOT could be applied for sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE), which is a serious sepsis-related complication. Two vital mechanisms in the pathogenesis of SAE are: (1) neuroinflammation mainly induced by microglia and (2) cerebral ischemia/hypoperfusion caused by cerebral microcirculatory abnormalities. Herein, we highlight the mechanisms of the neuroprotective effects of HBOT and its potential application as a therapeutic modality for SAE. We also discuss the caveats and limitations of applying HBOT in sepsis.
