About Hyperbaric Medicine Department

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a well-established treatment for serious infections, air bubbles in blood vessels, and wounds related to diabetes or radiation that are slow to heal. During HBO therapy, patients breathe pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber, increasing the amount of oxygen in the blood. This helps new blood vessels develop and deliver more oxygen to damaged tissues and wounds, speeding up the healing process, activating infection-fighting white blood cells, and improving the effectiveness of antibiotics. Some clinics also offer comprehensive wound care services, including compression therapy, negative-pressure wound therapy, skin substitutes, and specialty dressings.
