Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is one of the least invasive treatments to assist in healing wounds.  Patient’s are placed inside a clear sided chamber that pumps 100% oxygen into the chamber and pressurizes it so that the blood circulating to their wound is 100% oxygenated giving the wound the most oxygen enriched blood supply to heal their wound.  While the patient lays inside the chamber breathing normally, they can watch television, a movie or nap.  Being inside the chamber under pressure feels much like taking off or landing in a plane.  The success rate with hyperbaric oxygen therapy and advanced wound care modalities are 96%.

Indications for Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy are as follows: 

• Acute Arterial Insufficiency
• Chronic Refractory Osteomyelitis
• Diabetic ulcers with a Wagner grade of 3 or above
• Failed skin graft/flaps 
• Osteoradionecrosis (mandible)
• Radiation cystitis
• Radiation proctitis
• Soft Tissue Radio necrosis (dry mouth, difficulty swallowing, pain)
• Sudden sensory neural hearing loss 

The Goals for Wound Treatment

• Heal the Wound 
• Return quality of life 
• Give the patient the tools to keep wounds from returning (30% of diabetic patients will develop recurring wounds)
