How does the hyperbaric chamber help to treat burns?
A burn is an injury to the skin or other organic tissue caused mainly by heat or radiation, radioactivity, electricity, friction or contact with chemicals. According to WHO data: Burns cause approximately 180,000 deaths per year, most of which occur in low and middle income countries. Injuries from non-fatal burns are one of the main causes of morbidity. Burns occur
The treatament that accelerates healing
Hypoxia or decreased oxygen transported by the blood to the organs is one of the factors that prevents proper healing of wounds, grafts, ulcers or diabetic foot. Various scientific research has shown that Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is effective in reversing this situation, shortening healing times, reducing the risk of infections, and improving the clinical picture of patients. When the
THE EFFECTIVENESS OF TOHB IN WOUNDS IS PROVEN
Over the years, scientific studies have shown that patients with wounds, grafts, ulcers or diabetic foot receiving oxygen at high concentrations within a hyperbaric chamber evolve more rapidly than those who do not complement the usual treatment with this therapy. In other words, Hyperbaric Oxygenation favors healing in wounds of any kind and greatly reduces the risks of amputation, even
HBOT REDUCE HEALTH COSTS
The recovery time of an injury decreases by 30 to 40% Reduces period of hospitalization, so there will be greater availability of beds to treat other patients The least amount of downtime for the patient, who can resume his duties and a normal life. The increase of oxygen in blood produced by the hyperbaric chamber treatment generates a great amount
BioBarica Portugal will be part of Wound Congress
On 3 and 4th November, BioBarica Portugal will be present at the APTFeridas 2016 Congress, organized by the Portuguese Association of Wound Management (APTF), in order to assess, prevent and treat wounds. This annual event will be held in Exponor, the largest exhibition center of the country, where BioBarica will have a space to show our hyperbaric chamber and provide information
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for wound treatment
Oxygen is not only required to generate the energy needed for cell division and protein synthesis. It’s been found that it can also stimulate the production of various cellular mediators necessary for healing. Oxygen isn’t stored, so its concentration in tissues depends on several factors: the lung/gas exchange, cardiac output, tissue perfusion, capillary density, blood oxygen content, and tissue oxygen consumption.
