At Bangkok Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Center, treatments are administered by experienced and specialized physicians in aviation and underwater faculty. The treatment of decompression sickness and air embolism found in astronauts, pilots, and sea divers that have been exposed to various atmospheric pressure.
Also known as Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), the treatment infuses concentrated oxygen, approximately 20 times of the normal level, through a decompressing chamber. The chamber enhances the oxygen flow through the blood stream at approximately three times at the atmospheric pressure which decreases tissue swelling, healing wounds rapidly, and also forming new blood vessels.
For the safety and comfort of our patients, our HBOT center utilizes “monoplace”, a single-person chamber. Patients can relax, watch television, listen to music or simply relax at ease during the session.
HBOT is used to treat:
- Bubbles of air in your blood vessels (arterial gas embolism)
- Carbon monoxide poisoning
- Clostridia infection
- Severe wound from accident
- Decompression sickness
