1. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
is often referred to as:
HBOT
Bird Medical Devices

2. BRIEF HISTORY OF HBOT
 1662 - British physician to treat pulmonary disease and help with digestion.
 1891 - Doctors in U.S. began using hyperbaric oxygen therapy to treat nervous disorders
 1895 - Was found to be effective in treating carbon monoxide poisoning.
 1928 - A five story having 60 rooms chamber for $1 million in Ohio by Dr. Cunningham
 1934 - A U.S. Naval officer found it to be effective in treating decompression sickness.
 1961 - Hyperbaric oxygen therapy was found to be effective in treating gas gangrene.
 1963 - The first International Congress on Hyperbaric Medicine convened in USA
 1966 - Hyperbaric oxygen therapy was found to be effective in treating stroke patients.
 1970 - Hyperbaric oxygen therapy was found to be effective in treating multiple sclerosis.
 1988 - The International Society of Hyperbaric Medicine was founded.
 2000 -Hyperbaric medicine was approved by the American Board of Medical Specialties
as a sub-speciality of emergency and preventative medicine.

3. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Humour
“First tried on Human ….
now being successfully used on animals. ”
Bird Medical Devices

4. HYPERBARIC
Hyper = More or increased
Baric = Related to Pressure
More Pressure
Word “Hyperbaric” is derived from Hebrew word for “More Pressure”
Bird Medical Devices

5. “Hyperbaric” is More Pressure
Than what pressure ?
Related to which pressure?
Bird Medical Devices

6. More Pressure
Related to Atmospheric Pressure
Atmospheric pressure is the
pressure exerted at sea level.
This pressure is referred to as
One Atmospheric Pressure = 1 ATA
ATA ( Atmospheric Absolute )
Bird Medical Devices

7. Henry’s Law
Increase in atmospheric pressure allows
more gas to be dissolved into any given liquid.
Increase in more oxygen pressure
allows more oxygen to be dissolved in body fluids.
Bird Medical Devices

8. What is
Hyperbaric Medicine ?
The medical use of
Oxygen
At
higher pressure
than the atmospheric pressure
Bird Medical Devices

9. What is
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy ?
(HBOT)
Intermittant medical treatment with
100 % oxygen
at a
pressure greater
than the normal atmospheric pressure
Bird Medical Devices

10. MECHANISM OF ACTION
1. Hyper oxygenation:
Breathing room air renders 21% oxygen at 1 ATA.
Hyperbaric chamber provides up to 20 times 100%
oxygen to all tissues within the body.

11. MECHANISM OF EFFECT
2. Direct Pressure to Oxygen Molecules:
Normally only the red blood cells are capable of
transporting oxygen.
During HBOT, Oxygen molecules become more soluble obeying
the scientific principles of Henry’s Universal Gas Law.
Oxygen crosses cell membranes and enter all of the body’s
fluid systems, including plasma, synovial, lymphatic,
interstitial (between cells) and cerebrospinal fluids.
Bird Medical Devices

12. MECHANISM OF ACTION
3. Mechanical effect:
Any free gas trapped in the body will decrease in
volume as the pressure on it increases”
Successfully applied to air embolism and
decompression sickness
Bird Medical Devices

13. MECHANISM OF ACTION:
4. Gas Wash out effect:
The flooding of the body with any one gas tends to "wash
out" all others.
Treatment for CO intoxication
and cyanide poisoning
Bird Medical Devices

14. MECHANISM OF ACTION
5. Vasoconstriction:
Causes vasoconstriction without creating
hypoxia which decreases edema
Useful in burns, crush injuries,
interstitial bleeding, Acute brain and
spinal cord injuries
Bird Medical Devices

15. MECHANISM OF ACTION
6. Bacteriostasis
Organisms that cannot survive in an oxygen rich
environment are bacteria, fungi and viruses
White blood cells (leukocytes) become
supercharged with Oxygen in the battle against
bacteria responsible for causing infection
and illness.
Bird Medical Devices

16. MECHANISM OF ACTION
7. Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) Stimulation
A Surge of Antioxidant Capabilities:
Hyperbaric Oxygen stimulates superoxides
( SOD production)
Helps the body to rid itself of the byproducts of
inflammation and damaging free radicals.
Bird Medical Devices

17. MECHANISM OF ACTION
8. Angiogenesis
The Formation of New Blood Vessels:
Stimulates the growth of new capillaries (angiogenesis)
building a new collateral to serve injured and healthy
tissues alike.
Neovascularization is helpful for reaching tissues and
organs that have restricted blood flow to ischemic areas.
Bird Medical Devices

18. MECHANISM OF ACTION
9. Fibroplast and Collagen Production
Fibroblast, Collagen reproduction and growth
are aided by the added availability of increased
oxygen provided during hyperbaric conditions.
Plays a critical role in wound healing.
Bird Medical Devices

19. MECHANISM OF ACTION
10. Osteoblast and Osteoclast Production:
Stimulate and increase production of cells like
osteoblasts and osteoclasts
Faster regeneration of bone.
