Hip 596: 5 X Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatments
Donated by Kirsten Johnson - KESMARC.
Notes:
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is the only medical technology that can drastically increase the oxygen levels in the tissue. Within the controlled environment of the hyperbaric chamber and under supervision by a operator, horses are exposed to increased oxygen levels at above atmospheric pressure, thereby drastically increasing blood plasma and tissue oxygen levels.
HBOT is a highly effective therapy both when utilized as an adjunct, with other medications, and when used on its own. HBOT can be used for both acute and chronic conditions. Early use of HBOT after an injury improves the outcome and often shortens the time required for healing. Use of HBOT for chronic conditions decreases inflammation and increases blood flow to areas that have had long-term problems.
