Hello! It seems that the recent HBOT study by CARD really misses the mark. To add to the body of studies and literature on HBOT, it would seem to me that only using 24% oxygen was completely counter-intuitive. My understanding has been that the benefits of HBOT were attained by increasing the oxygen content of the blood. Using an oxygen content of near ambient room air does not help in trying to determine whether HBOT therapy, with its current protocal, is or is not helpful to kids with ASD. It makes me question the purpose of the study and why good research money would be wasted?

We strongly advise that all children needing specific medical or legal advice seek counsel of a duly licensed professional. Every child is unique, and to attempt to address complex medical issues without a trained and experienced expert is akin to a lay person attempting to perform surgery without any training. Doing either would risk serious (and in some cases could have irreversible) consequences.

It's just me
