Orthopedics and HBOT

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can be beneficial for patients with slow or non-healing surgical wounds and can assist with resolving soft tissue infections or refractory osteomyelitis.  Post-surgical HBOT can reduce swelling and pain, improve blood flow, and heal tissue and bone faster than normal, allowing athletes to recover and return to training more quickly.  HBOT can also be useful in treating complications following injury or surgery, such as AVN, Non-union fractures or compartment syndrome. 

HBOT can benefit your patients by:

    • Hyper-oxygenating tissue
    • Reducing inflammation
    • Stimulating angiogenesis
    • Mobilizing stem cells from bone marrow.
    • Stimulating to proliferation of Fibroblast an Osteoblast cells
    • Working synergistically with antibiotics to fight infections
    • Downregulation IL1, IL6, and TNF alpha
    • Bactericidal to anaerobic and aerobic bacteria including clostridium species and staph (including MRSA)
