“…While HBOT has been used for over 50 years, only in recent years has it been applied to improving cognition, memory loss, language and comprehension deficits after brain trauma and stroke, offering an alternative treatment to more invasive procedures like cell transplants [2,29]. HBOT has been shown to increase oxygen supply and hence reduce ischemia injury caused by stroke, minimizing neurological damage [30]…”

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) has been a recognised treatment for a multitude of injuries for decades and presents significant opportunities for the improvement of wound healing, blood vessel restoration, reduction in recovery time after surgery, treatment of neurological and neurodegenerative disorders, improvement of memory and cognition, sports injury rehabilitation, cartilage regeneration, and overall quality of life. This paper aims to investigate HBOT and its indications for use, both as an adjuvant with other established treatments and independently, in order to provide an overview of treatment avenues with immense possibilities and versatility.

“…Hypertension is the most relevant modifiable factor, while age is the predominant non-modifiable factor predisposing individuals to the disease. Additionally, male gender and a family history of stroke have been demonstrated to increase the risk [ 5 ]. Stroke symptoms can vary depending on the affected brain region, but generally include sudden weakness or numbness in the face, arm, or leg, confusion, difficulty speaking or understanding language, vision problems, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination, and severe headache.…”

“…A distinction between two stroke types can be made: The most common type of stroke, accounting for around 85% of all strokes, is an ischemic stroke, which happens when thrombosis results in a vascular obstruction and severe hypoperfusion. The second kind is hemorrhagic, which happens when blood seeps into the brain or the subarachnoid region (Chandra et al, 2017). The American Stroke Association lists transient ischemic attack (TIA), also referred to as a "mini-stroke," as the third form of stroke (2018).…”

Background: Vital signs can draw attention to impeding the clinical deterioration of a patient with stroke. So; therapeutic positioning is important to promote patients' functional recovery. Aim: to determine the effect of instructional guidelines regarding therapeutic positions on post-stroke pain and vital signs among patients with stroke. Design: This study will be used a quasi-experimental design (pre/post-test) with study and control groups. Setting: at the stroke unit in Suez Canal University hospital-Egypt. Sample: A Purposive sample consisted of 100 patients who will be divided into the study (50) and control groups (50) from the above-mentioned setting will be recruited in this study and assigned randomly. Tools: Tool I: Personal data assessment sheet, Tool II: The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) for assessing patients' medical history, Tool III: Vital parameters observational checklist tool, and Tool IV: Numerical Pain Rating scale. Results: The results revealed that there were highly significant improvements in patients with stroke's knowledge of pre-and post-instructional guidelines implementation (P<0.001). Furthermore, the study revealed that the majority of the studied patients had no pain after the semi-fowler's position. There was a statistically significant difference and improvement in pre and post-instructional guidelines implementation regarding therapeutic positioning concerning selected vital signs such as heart rate and respiratory rate scores at semi-fowler's position. Conclusion: The instructional guidelines implementation regarding therapeutic positions had a significant effect on reducing pain levels and improving vital signs among patients with stroke. Recommendations: The instructional guidelines regarding therapeutic positions should be conducted, discussed, integrated into the care of patients with stroke, and taught to them to improve their knowledge.
