Surgical Recovery

Surgical recovery depends heavily on efficient tissue oxygenation, modulation of inflammation, and robust angiogenic response. Recent studies indicate that hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), delivered using a specific protocol, can enhance postoperative healing by facilitating these critical physiological processes. HBOT increases oxygen delivery to hypoxic tissues by significantly raising the amount of dissolved oxygen in the bloodstream. It stimulates angiogenesis and collagen synthesis — both vital to wound repair — by activating growth factors and mobilizing repair cells.
