Acute Intermittent Hypoxia in Traumatic Brain Injury

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This study is designed to answer questions related to safety and preliminary efficacy of Acute Intermittent Hypoxia (AIH) in Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) survivors. First, we aim to establish whether brief reductions in inhaled oxygen concentration can be safely tolerated in TBI survivors. Second, we aim to establish whether there are any effects of AIH on memory, cognition, and motor control. Participants will be monitored closely for any adverse events during these experiments. Data will be analyzed to determine if there is an improvement in key outcomes at any dose level.
