Hyperbaric care

The two fields of wound management and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) are closely related. Hyperbaric oxygen has been demonstrated to assist in healing conditions including non-healing diabetic wounds, soft-tissue or bone infections, and radiation tissue damage.

Our Wound Management & Hyperbaric Center treats patients who may be diagnosed with one of the following nine medical diagnoses, which are directly related to compromised wound healing:

• Osteomyelitis (refractory)
• Radiation tissue damage
• Crush injury, compartment syndrome, and other acute traumatic ischemias
• Thermal burns
• Skin grafts and flaps (compromised)
• Enhancement of healing in select problem wounds
• Intracranial abscess
• Diabetic wounds of the lower extremities

Patients may access hyperbaric treatment by physician referral. "Please have your physician fax a referral for hyperbaric care to (321) 837-1718, or call (321) 434-1788 for more information on our hyperbaric services.
