About this trial

The purpose of CARE-HBOT study is to evaluate whether patients with symptomatic severe carotid artery stenosis with cognitive impairment who underwent hyperbaric oxygen therapy plus standard medical treatment after stent implantation could improve their cognitive function compared with those who underwent standard postoperative medical treatment.
