HBOT has been used quite extensively in the last couple of decades. But there are not many centers that offer this treatment, even in civilian situations. This review has described the rationale and clinical evidence for equipping medical centers with HBO systems, especially in military areas. A narrative review of all the literature available on HBOT in combat-related injuries, studies were retrieved from systematic searches on Science Direct, PubMed, SCOPUS, ISC, Google Scholar, and by cross-referencing until 2020. First, the etiological mechanisms of action of HBOT were discussed. Furthermore, we have provided an overview of 117 studies that clinically investigated the effect of HBOT in the last couple of decades. Therefore, based on the number of studies showing a positive effect, to speed up the treatment process, especially in war-related injuries, it is better to provide its infrastructure and equip hospitals and centers with HBO.
