Angiogenesis Induced in the Elderly by Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Sponsor: Assaf-Harofeh Medical Center

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Recent studies show preliminary evidence of HBOT therapeutic effects on angiogenesis, increased tissue blood flow and oxygenation correlated with tissue function. Our primary hypothesis is that HBOT will have beneficial effects on the above mentioned organs associated with aging-related malfunctions due to restored mitochondrial function, mobilization of stem cells and induction of angiogenesis.
