Wound Treatment

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) offers professionals a more robust, evidence-based healing pathway for patients struggling with difficult-to-heal wounds. HBOT can serve as a valuable adjunct in treating chronic and non-healing wounds, like diabetic ulcers, radiation-induced injuries, and compromised flaps or surgical sites. HBOT significantly enhances tissue oxygenation, supporting growth factor release, angiogenesis, and collagen synthesis critical for repair. Evidence from systematic reviews demonstrates that HBOT reduces amputation risk in diabetic foot ulcers and improves healing rates in refractory wounds. HBOT is also a recognized therapy for radiation injuries, thermal burns, skin graft compromise, and trauma-related wounds.
