Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
What is Hyperbaric Oxygen (HBO) Therapy?
HBO is a medical treatment that increases the amount of oxygen in the patient’s blood, allowing oxygen to pass more easily through the plasma into the wounds to heal them. HBO chambers surround patients with 100% oxygen at higher than normal atmospheric pressure.
Who requires extra oxygen?
Usually, there is no benefit to increasing the level of oxygen in the body for normal, healthy individuals. People with certain medical conditions do, however, benefit from increased levels of oxygen.
Who benefits from Oxygen Therapy?
Some potential candidates are:
- Diabetics who have wounds and meet qualifying conditions
- Individuals with certain bone and skin infections
- Those with radiation injuries
- Those suffering with compromised or failing skin grafts or flaps.
A hyperbaric supervising physician at the center will evaluate your wound to determine the best course of treatment and answer any questions you may have.
