PANS/PANDAS + HBOT

hello277944


Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorder Associated with Streptococcal Infections (PANDAS) and Pediatric Acute-Onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome (PANS) are auto-immune diseases triggered by chronic infections. Exposure to virus, bacteria, fungi, or toxins such as strep, mold, influenza, Lyme and its co-infections can trigger PANDAS/PANS.


HBOT may help by increasing oxygen levels in the blood and tissues, which could potentially enhance the body's healing processes and reduce inflammation. Increased oxygen levels in the blood and tissues can also decrease biofilm, a low oxygen environment that allows anaerobic viruses and bacteria to rapidly multiply. Proponents suggest that HBOT could have a positive impact on symptom severity and frequency. 


The International Hyperbarics Association lists these as demonstrated benefits of HBOT for PANS/PANDAS symptoms: 


Anti-Inflammatory Effects:

  • Decrease chronic and acute inflammation

  • Increase anti-inflammatory cytokines

Reduces Systemic Inflammation

  • Remediates joint pain

  • Reduces systemic inflammation in the brain

Effect on Biofilm

  • Breaks up and kill biofilm

  • Releases infection from biofilm, making it easier for body and immune system to detect and fight infection

  • Reduction in anaerobic bacteria load
