Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for the Treatment of Lyme Disease.

Fife W.P. and Freeman D.M. Preliminary Clinical Study College Station, Texas: Texas A&M University Hyperbaric Laboratory, 1997.

Forty patients with Lyme disease were treated with HBOT 5 days per week for approximately 4 weeks. All but 2 cases improved, and improvement persisted after HBOT was discontinued, even when they discontinued antibiotic therapy.

Symptoms that improved included mental confusion, pain, depression and fatigue. This was a pilot study and has not been confirmed. HBOT must therefore be considered experimental in treatment of Lyme disease.
