Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a specialized medical treatment that increases the amount of oxygen in your bloodstream, allowing oxygen to pass more easily through the plasma in your blood. HBOT at Medina Hospital utilizes a multi-place treatment room which can accommodate up to 10 patients. One hundred percent oxygen is administered during treatment.
During your Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy treatment, you can sit back, relax, read, nap or watch a movie; the only physical sensation you may feel is slight pressure in your eardrums.
Some conditions that are treated with HBOT include:
- Diabetic wounds/ulcers.
- Slow healing wounds (wounds that have not shown improvement in four weeks).
- Certain bone and skin infections.
- Radiation injuries.
- Compromised skin grafts or flaps.
- Gangrene.
- Carbon monoxide poisoning.
For more information regarding Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), call 330.721.5127.
