Abstract

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a professional medical regimen with a wide range of clinical applications in various research fields. In addition to treating diving decompression sickness and air embolism, HBOT is used as an adjuvant in the management of various diseases. A large number of studies have been published to confirm its efficacy. Although HBOT has been clinically applied to the treatment of many diseases, the effectiveness of these treatments remains controversial. Exploring and evaluating HBOT will contribute to the future development of research in this field. Through a quantitative analysis of the literature, this paper explores the citation relevance and collaboration map and their impact on research outcomes. This study used bibliometric and cartographic techniques with VOSviewer to identify the most influential countries and scholars using this treatment, based on syndrome differentiation. It also provides continuous quality evaluation and lean management of the medical expenses associated with HBOT.
