This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) — a treatment where you breathe oxygen in a specially pressurized chamber — to see if it helps your brain heal after an ischemic stroke. Researchers believe that increasing oxygen delivery to the injured parts of your brain may help nerve cells repair themselves and form new connections. You would be treated during your stay at an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where doctors can closely monitor your progress.
After a stroke, brain cells may be injured but not permanently dead, and they can potentially recover for months. The injured area often doesn't get enough oxygen because blood flow is damaged. This trial is testing whether this treatment can give your brain the extra oxygen it needs to heal and help you regain lost abilities.

You would receive 10 one-hour sessions in a pressurized oxygen chamber over two consecutive weeks (Monday through Friday each week). Some participants will receive 100% pure oxygen, others will receive regular room air at higher pressure, and a control group will receive room air at very low pressure. All of this happens as part of your regular stay at the rehabilitation facility, so it fits into your existing therapy schedule without disrupting your daily care.
