Hyperbaric Chamber

 

HBOT stands for Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. During HBOT your body is effectively saturated with oxygen, an essential element used by your body for healing. HBOT provides oxygen to cells and tissues that suffer from a lack of oxygen. Healing tissues suffering from hypoxia are unable to heal themselves as effectively as when they have oxygen. Most cells in areas of swelling or other types of injury are suffering from hypoxia. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy also boosts the abilities of the immune system by accelerating the creation of new white blood cells, the sentinel of the bloodstream.

 

Who Cannot Have HBOT?

There are a few conditions in which some may not be able to undergo HBOT. If the patient has certain types of lung damage, hyperbaric oxygen therapy may not be a suitable treatment. Certain medications will also preclude some from hyperbaric oxygen treatment.

 Diabetics are required to take a blood test before each hyperbaric treatment. If the blood sugar level is too low, the patient will not be permitted to undergo treatment until the level is raised. These conditions are for the overall wellness of the patient.

 

Treatment

 During HBOT, the patient is placed in a chamber that allows the body to be brought to greater-than-normal atmospheric pressure. Under this greater-than-normal atmospheric pressure, the patient breathes 100% oxygen, which first fills the red blood cells in the bloodstream, then continues to flow into the bloodstream and is absorbed directly into the plasma (one of the components of blood). The increased atmospheric pressure facilitates oxygen absorption. The dissolved oxygen in the plasma is more readily available for use by the cells in the body, as little is required to remove the oxygen from the red blood cells. HBOT is a process that floods the body with oxygen so that it may more readily heal itself.

What affect does HBOT HAS ON HEALING?

 

HBOT provides the cells with a boost of oxygen to help the healing process. Oxygen is better able to reach cells that are suffering from hypoxia because of blocked or damaged capillaries (smaller blood vessels that are the last link in the circulatory system to deliver oxygen to cells). Healing is often accelerated by 30%-50% or more (this will vary depending on illness and condition).

What is the treatment like?

During hyperbaric treatment, one feels comfortable as though he or she were at atmospheric pressure. Patients feel as though they were not even in the chamber. While the chamber is changing pressures, one experiences the same effects of pressure change while ascending or descending in an airplane. It is very normal to feel pressure changes in your ears on ascent and descent, but it is not common to feel pain. A few patients may while most will not. However, the most important area to focus on is to communicate with patients (eye contact, ask for confirmation via hand signal, etc.) frequently. A good practice is to monitor patients every 5-10 minutes with patients and perhaps, longer or as you deem necessary for those who are used to hyperbaric sessions).

What are the risk of HBOT Therapy?
The process is minimally invasive.
How long does start to take effect?
 How long will it last depends on how your body responds to the treatment and your physical life style. 

Maintenance, depending on the indication for your treatment. The results from each visit will vary by each patient needs.
