Cardiology

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can serve as a beneficial adjunctive treatment for cardiology patients including those with ACS, cardiopulmonary bypass, angina, and even sternal infections after CABG.

The use of HBOT to precondition patients with coronary artery disease before they undergo cardiopulmonary bypass surgery can lead to improved myocardial function after the operation, reducing the length of intensive care stay and limiting complications post-bypass surgery. It can also improve clinical outcomes in patients with sternal infection and osteomyelitis after sternotomy and cardiothoracic surgery.

How your patients will benefit from HBOT

  • Decreases re-perfusion injury
  • Stimulates angiogenesis and potentially collateralization of blood flow
  • Enhances stem cell proliferation from the bone marrow and migration to the area of injury
  • Improve mitochondrial efficiency
  • Promotes tissue regeneration.
  • Profoundly decreases inflammation
  • Decreases fibrosis
  • May reduce the volume of heart muscle damaged after ACS

Chiropractic

The combination of Chiropractic with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can be a very powerful and holistic approach to healing and recovery. Chiropractic adjustments can cause localized inflammation, which can lead to a short term worsening of pain and disability. HBOT decreases inflammation, decreases pain, and allows the body to heal from within faster and more efficiently.

How your patients will benefit from HBOT

  • Increasing healing and recovery
  • Reduces inflammation and swelling
  • Promotes stem cell mobilization

Dentistry / Oral Surgery

In the fields of Dentistry and Oromaxillofacial Surgery, HBOT accelerates healing and profoundly decreases inflammation. In addition, HBOT also works synergistically with antibiotics to fight infection and will repopulate injured tissue with stem cells, allowing it to regenerate and revitalize.

Common conditions where HBOT may be helpful include: Osteoradionecrosis of the jaw (plus its prevention), facial flap healing, nerve injury, dental infections, post-operative pain and swelling, facial infections, and many others.

How your patients will benefit from HBOT

  • Profound decrease in inflammation & swelling
  • Decrease pain
  • Decrease bruising and scarring
  • Improve bone growth
  • Enhance connective tissue strength

Gastroenterology

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy accelerates the healing of any wound, even surgical wounds. It is especially effective when complicated, non-healing wounds, are present.  Conditions that have been studied where HBOT can be effective include radiation proctitis, radiation enteritis, non-healing wounds in previously radiated tissue beds, acute pancreatitis, inflammatory bowel disease and complications, postoperative ileus, and abdominal infections such as diverticulitis.

How your patients will benefit from HBOT

  • Decreases inflammation
  • Downregulates TNF-alpha
  • Bactericidal to anaerobic and facultatively anaerobic bacteria
  • Increases Angiogenesis
  • Releases pluripotent stem cells from bone marrow

Pain Management

Hyperbaric oxygen treatment is a proven method used to treat pain management by infusing damaged tissue with oxygen at higher than atmospheric pressure. The oxygen works to relieve and repair damage, offering relief to those who suffer from chronic pain. Hyperbaric oxygen treatment may be used as an alternative to narcotics, which may result in harmful side effects.

Hyperbaric oxygen treatment may be used to not only provide pain relief, but to help patients recover from injury or painful conditions at an accelerated rate.

How your patients will benefit from HBOT

  • Relieve and reduce damage
  • Reduces pain

Pediatrics

Young patients can greatly benefit from Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT). Common examples are cases of children who have who have suffered from carbon monoxide poisoning or gas gangrene, but also for those who have been diagnosed with certain chronic conditions and autoimmune disorders.

HBOT allows children to breathe pure oxygen. The increases to blood flow and circulation relieves symptoms, including reducing swelling and pain in these patients.

How your patients will benefit from HBOT

  • Increases blood flow

  • Relieves symptoms
  • Helps minimize pain

Physiatry

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can help treat patients suffering a wide variety of medical conditions affecting the brain, nerves, spinal cord, bones, muscles, joints, tendons and ligaments.

Dissolving oxygen into all of the body’s fluids—including those of the central nervous system, lymph, plasma and bone—instead of its traditional transportation via red blood cells, can aid in the healing and rehabilitation process by delivering much-needed oxygen to damaged or blocked areas otherwise unable to receive this essential element.

How your patients will benefit from HBOT

  • Increased oxygen levels
  • Improved healing capabilities
  • Reduced swelling
  • Speedier rehabilitation

Radiation Oncology

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can be used as a complementary treatment for your patients in order to help speed up recovery or damage from radiation treatment for necrosis, both cancerous and healthy, in the areas irradiated. Radiation has been known to damage blood vessels and this lack of blood supply can eventually cause non-healing wounds to form in soft tissue and bone. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can help aid in your patients healing.

Urology

Often patients who have undergone radiation therapy for the treatment of prostate cancer experience symptoms of urinary incontinence, intermittent or constant hematuria, severe dysuria, pelvic or rectal pain, or even erectile dysfunction. These symptoms may be the result of conditions known as radiation injury.

Examples include radiation cystitis, radiation prostatitis, and radiation proctitis.

Symptoms can arise months, if not years, after initial radiation exposure and significantly deteriorate a patient’s quality of life and overall well-being.

To improve the quality of life of these patients and heal wounds caused by radiation therapy, angiogenesis is the key. By speeding up the production of vascularization, HBOT serves to help your patients heal faster from wounds caused by radiation.
