Functional outcome and quality of life after iatrogenic cerebral air embolism treated with hyperbaric oxygen: a prospective cohort study
Iatrogenic CAE is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, with only a third of patients in our cohort achieving good functional recovery. Over half of survivors in this cohort self-reported reduced QoL as compared to their situation before the CAE incident.
