Brief Summary:
During the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic a large number patients reported different functional complaints one month or later after recovery from the acute infection. This entity had a number of names including "long-COVID" or "post COVID condition". Long-COVID is on the rise and no effective treatment exists yet to improve cognitive function. Recent research has shown that people with even mild COVID had a greater decline in executive function, notably in their ability to perform complex tasks. What drives post-COVID cognitive changes is still a mystery and there are no effective treatments available. One hypothesis is that there is persistent immune activation resulting in reduction in cerebral blood flow. There is evidence that increased CO2 may decrease inflammation, and decreased CO2 may increase inflammation.
Objectives: The primary objective of this pilot study is to assess the safety and tolerability of the use of Hi-OX sequential rebreathing for the treatment of post-COVID cognitive dysfunction. The secondary objective is to identify the effects of the use of the Hi-OX rebreathing treatment in changing post-COVID cognitive dysfunction.
