Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy involves breathing pure oxygen in an oxygenated environment. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a well-established treatment for decompression sickness, a potential risk of scuba diving. In a hyperbaric oxygen therapy chamber, the air pressure is 2 to 3 times higher than normal air pressure. Under these conditions, the lungs can take in more oxygen than at normal pressure. The extra oxygen helps fight bacteria. It also triggers the release of substances such as growth factors and stem cells, which promote healing.

Applications of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

HBOT is primarily used for treating a variety of medical conditions, including:

Decompression sickness: Commonly known as "the bends," this condition can occur in divers who ascend too quickly.

Carbon monoxide poisoning: HBOT helps displace carbon monoxide from hemoglobin in the blood.

Wounds that do not heal: Particularly useful for diabetic foot ulcers and other chronic wounds.

Infections: It can assist in treating serious infections, including those that cause tissue death (necrotizing fasciitis).

Other conditions: These include severe anemia, sudden deafness, gangrene, and certain types of radiation injuries.
