Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), in which patients breathe oxygen at a partial pressure higher than 1 atmosphere in a hyperbaric chamber, has been investigated in the context of treating a wide range of neuropsychiatric disorders, including PTSD and mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).\n\nFour controlled studies conducted in patients with mTBI, about half of whom also suffered from PTSD, have yielded conflicting conclusions regarding the potential efficacy of hyperbaric therapy. A single study involving approximately 30 patients with PTSD without mTBI demonstrated significant clinical improvement; however, it was characterized by several methodological limitations-chief among them the absence of blinding or a placebo control. None of the studies conducted to date have reported long-term findings (beyond one year), included patients with a short duration of symptoms (\"early PTSD\"), or included female participants.\n\nThe aim of the proposed study is to conduct a prospective, double-blind, controlled investigation of the biological effect of hyperbaric therapy in PTSD, continuously throughout the hyperbaric treatment course, at the end of treatment, and during a substantial follow-up period of two years after treatment completion.\n\nWe intend to include adult participants who are capable of providing informed consent and who meet DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for PTSD. In order to maintain a pragmatic study with high external validity, exclusion criteria will be limited to those indicating risk (concrete suicidality, or a history of manic or psychotic disorder) or factors likely to impair treatment efficacy (incompatibility with hyperbaric chamber treatment, inability to complete the full treatment protocol, or pregnancy). Participants who miss a substantial number of treatments (five consecutively or one-third of the total treatments) will be withdrawn from the study.\n\nThe primary outcome measure will be the CAPS-5 questionnaire. In addition, PTSD symptom questionnaires, surveys assessing cognitive, executive, affective functioning, and health-related quality of life will be administered. An exploratory outcome will focus on sleep quantity and quality and physiological monitoring using wearable devices, currently considered the most promising biomarker in the context of PTSD.\n\nFollowing enrollment and the provision of informed consent, balanced randomization will be performed with respect to covariates previously described as potential confounders (such as age, duration, and severity of symptoms, …). Participants will receive 60 hyperbaric treatments, five days per week, at either 2.0 atmospheres or 2.5 atmospheres. Both the participants and the evaluating clinical staff will be blinded to treatment allocation.",[26],"PTSD - Post Traumatic Stress Disorder",[28,29,30],"PTSD","HBO","Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy","RECRUITING","2026-03-10",{"date":34,"type":35},"2026-03-16","ACTUAL",{"date":37,"type":20},"2026-03-01",{"date":39,"type":20},"2027-08-31",{"name":41,"class":42},"Medical Corps, Israel Defense Force","OTHER",1,{"id":45,"slug":46,"hasResults":11,"nctId":47,"briefTitle":48,"officialTitle":48,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":49,"healthyVolunteers":50,"sex":15,"minAge":16,"maxAge":51,"enrollmentInfo":52,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":21,"phases":54,"briefSummary":55,"conditions":56,"keywords":58,"overallStatus":63,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":64,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":65,"startDateStruct":67,"completionDateStruct":69,"leadSponsor":71,"locationsCount":4},"100519586","postexposure-prophylaxis-with-single-dose-doxycycline-for-the-prevention-of-tick-borne-relapsing-fever-100519586","NCT06045481","Postexposure Prophylaxis With Single Dose Doxycycline for the Prevention of Tick-borne Relapsing Fever","Inclusion Criteria:\n\nIsrael Air Force flight course cadets.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Known sensitivity or allergy to doxycycline\n* Fever in the three weeks preceding the performance of the field series\n* Suspicion of the Tick borne disease with recurrent fever three weeks before performing the\n* Incompletion of the field series",true,"30 Years",{"count":53,"type":20},526,[23],"The goal of this clinical trial is to compare standard treatment (5 days of doxycycline) vs single dose doxycycline for the prevention of tick-borne relapsing fever in soldiers who found bite marks on their bodies after an activity that includes contact with the ground or staying at a site suspected of being infected with ticks.
