 Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a treatment in which the patient breathes 100%
oxygen inside a pressurized chamber. Southern Regional is one of only a few
hospitals to offer this type of wound therapy. It quickly delivers high
concentrations of oxygen to the bloodstream, assists in the healing process of
wounds and is effective in fighting certain types of infections. It also
stimulates the growth of new blood vessels and improves circulation. Therapy is
administered daily and the number of therapies you receive will depend on your
diagnosis.
