Portable Hyperbaric Oxygen Chambers Are
Healing and A Preventative for Stroke
Some say that
the loss of memory and brain function caused by the experience of
having a stroke is akin to what happens to the brain in cases of
near drowning. This connection has been quite lucky, medically
speaking, because from it we have discerned that portable hyperbaric
oxygen chambers may be used for stroke victims.
In fact, the first hyperbaric chambers were used by navies and
diving organizations, so that people might get used to living on
less oxygen and have a method of treatment that would work in case
anything went wrong. Today, there are many people besides those who
have had a stroke who also use hyperbaric chambers. Patients with
autism and cerebral palsy, diabetics, and even athletes are seeing
positive results from hyperbaric chambers.
Hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) works by pressurizing the chamber
with pure oxygen, much more concentrated than the approximately 20%
that we breathe in normally pressurized conditions. The oxygen
supply in red blood cells and plasma is replenished, maximizing the
amount of oxygen these can carry to muscles and tissue. Oxygen tends
to heal injured tissue and organs in the body, restoring internal
health. It also leads to better brain function by reducing swelling
in the brain and removing excess fluids, making hyperbaric chambers
ideal for stroke patients.
Stroke is said to be caused by lack of blood flowing to the brain,
which can be in turn due to thrombosis, which is blood clotting due
to a lack of oxygen in the blood. Treatments in hyperbaric chambers
can reinstate healthy levels of oxygen in the blood, which can help
stroke victims recover and, if a patient is susceptible to stroke,
prevent it. Stroke may also be caused by air embolism, which can be
the migration of gas or air bubbles in the body blocking the flow of
blood. In a hyperbaric chamber, this air gets converted to oxygen
and dispersed throughout the blood, making air embolism much less
likely.
Cases of patients of neurological disorders like cerebral palsy and
autism, who have been diagnosed with an unlikely recovery, have also
found relief from hyperbaric chambers. After just a short period of
time, children with autism had better communication skills, and
children with cerebral palsy had better balance and more speaking
abilities. Luckily, more is known about stroke than either of these
developmental disabilities, so experts can make more connections in
the benefits of hyperbaric chambers for stroke victims.
HBOT is an excellent solution for you or your loved one who has had
a stroke. Please talk to your doctor before acquiring your own
hyperbaric chamber or beginning treatments to make sure it is right
for you. Then witness as the portable hyperbaric oxygen chamber
makes great differences for someone who has had a stroke or is at
risk.
