Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a well-established medical treatment. In April 2005, the Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society recognized the therapy as an effective treatment for 13 specific conditions:
* embolisms (air or gas bubbles in the bloodstream, which may travel to the brain or lungs)
* carbon monoxide poisoning (from inhaling smoke or car exhaust)
* gas gangrene
* crush injury, Compartment Syndrome and other acute traumatic problems where blood flow is reduced or cut off (e.g., frostbite)
* decompression sickness (the bends)
* enhancement of healing for wounds such as diabetic foot ulcers
* exceptional blood loss (anemia)
* intracranial abscess (an accumulation of pus in the brain)
* necrotizing soft tissue infections (flesh-eating disease)
* osteomyelitis (bone infection)
* delayed radiation injury (e.g., radiation burns that develop after cancer therapy)
* skin grafts and flaps that are not healing well
* thermal burns (e.g., from fire or electrical sources)
How Hyperbaric Treatment Works
The therapy promotes healing in these 13 conditions by delivering a high concentration of oxygen quickly and deeply into the affected areas of the body.
During treatment, a patient goes into a closed chamber. The atmospheric pressure inside the chamber is increased. When the pressure reaches the level prescribed for the treatment, the patient is given 100 percent oxygen to breathe for a set amount of time. The patient breathes the oxygen through a hood and is advised when to take “”breaks”” and breathe the regular air inside the chamber. Regular air is 21 percent oxygen.
Some hyperbaric chambers hold only one patient. Others can accommodate two or more people. On occasion, a care-giver will go into the chamber with a patient. The duration of each treatment, the number of treatments and the pressure used all vary, depending on the patient’s condition. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy treatments normally take place in hospitals or private clinics.
