About Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
MUSC Health's Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy provides specialized treatment for adults, involving breathing pure oxygen in a high-pressure chamber, typically two to three times normal atmospheric pressure. This allows for enhanced oxygen absorption throughout the body, aiding in wound healing and managing complications from radiation therapy. Treatments generally last 90 minutes and are administered on an outpatient basis, five times a week. MUSC Health incorporates an aggressive limb preservation program in conjunction with experts at restoring blood flow to the legs, focusing on early vascular intervention for patients with compromised blood flow.
