Hyperbaric Oxygenation Therapy Uses

Hyperbaric Oxygenation Therapy is when a person breathes pure oxygen at an increased air pressure.

When breathing pure oxygen under pressure your lungs can gather much more oxygen than would be possible breathing pure oxygen at normal air pressure. As a result, your blood carries this extra oxygen throughout your body which helps fight bacteria and stimulate the release of substances called growth factors and stem cells, which promote healing.

HBOT can also help with inflammation and infection by stopping harmful bacteria and strengthening the body’s immune system. It stimulates the formation of new blood vessels, new collagen (connective tissue) and new skin cells. 

It is considered an adjunct therapy for a range of medical conditions, from serious infections, inflammation, wounds (e.g. diabetic foot ulcers or radiation injury) to sports injury, and it’s also used to speed up or improve recovery from surgery and for general health and wellness.

WOUND HEALING
Pressure Sores, Skin Grafts & Flaps. Can speed up recovery and reduce the risk of infection in open non-healing wounds such as pressure sores, skin grafts and flaps. HBOT can help maximize the viability of the compromised tissue thereby reducing the need for regrafting or repeat flap procedures.

European Committee on Hyperbaric Medicine

This is the European Committee on Hyperbaric Medicine’s (ECHM) list of accepted indications for hyperbaric oxygen treatment, based on a thorough review of the best available research and evidence-based medicine (EBM). (Diving and Hyperbaric Medicine Volume 47 No. 1 March 2017)

Level of evidence (based on GRADE system):

Grade A = High level of evidence. The true effect lies close to our estimate of the effect.

Grade B = Moderate level of evidence
The true effect is likely to be close to our estimate of the effect, but there is a possibility that it is substantially different.

Grade C = Low level of evidence
The true effect may be substantially different from our estimate of the effect.

Grade D = Very low level of evidence
Our estimate of the effect is just a guess, and it is very likely that the true effect is substantially different from our estimate of the effect.
