Gastroenterology and HBOT
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy accelerates the healing of any wound, even surgical wounds. It is especially effective when complicated, non-healing wounds, are poorly vascularized. Conditions where HBOT can be effective include radiation proctitis, radiation enteritis, non-healing wounds in previously irradiated tissue beds, acute pancreatitis, inflammatory bowel disease, and abdominal infections such as diverticulitis.
HBOT can benefit your patients by:
- Enhancing stem cell proliferation from the bone marrow
- Decreasing pain
- Stimulating angiogenesis in bone and soft tissue
- Downregulates TNF-alpha
- Bactericidal to anaerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria
- Improving mitochondrial efficiency
- Decreasing inflammation
