Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Therapy to promote healing

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is used to enhance the healing of wounds, particularly those that are difficult to heal or infected. During treatment, a patient lies in a special pressurized chamber of pure oxygen and breathes normally, which increases the amount of oxygen in the blood. 

For further information, contact us at 214-660-2580

Dallas Regional Medical Center doctors may use hyperbaric oxygen therapy to treat conditions such as:

  • Air or gas embolisms
  • Bone infections
  • Burns
  • Crush injuries and other traumatic injuries that compromise blood supply to tissues
  • Decompression sickness
  • Gangrene
  • Poisoning from carbon monoxide or cyanide
  • Pressure sores
  • Radiation treatment injuries or thermal burns
  • Refractory osteomyelitis
  • Skin grafts
  • Wounds that have not healed with other therapies, such as diabetic foot ulcers

Your doctor can determine whether this therapy is right for you.

Medical coverage at the Dallas Regional Medical Center Wound Care and Hyperbaric Center is provided by our Medical Director, Shahida Rafiq, M.D. Dr. Rafiq also speaks Spanish. Se habla español para que todos nuestros pacientes sientan bienvenidos.
