Products, Services and Treatment Overview Hyperbaric oxygen hyperbaric oxygen n. Oxygen at a pressure that is above one atmosphere. Also called high-pressure oxygen. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) A form of oxygen therapy in which the patient breathes oxygen in a pressurized chamber. Mentioned in: Ozone Therapy ) therapy has been approved by the FDA FDA abbr. Food and Drug Administration FDA, n.pr See Food and Drug Administration. FDA, n.pr the abbreviation for the Food and Drug Administration. , AMA (Automatic Message Accounting) The recording and reporting of telephone calls within a telephone system. It includes the calling and called parties and start and stop times of the call. , Medicare and insurance companies for treatment of certain medical conditions. During HBO therapy, there is a substantial increase in the amount of oxygen carried in all bodily fluids including plasma, cerebrospinal fluid cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) Clear, colourless liquid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord and fills the spaces in them. It helps support the brain, acts as a lubricant, maintains pressure in the skull, and cushions shocks. , lymph, and intracellular fluids. This allows increased oxygen levels even in areas with poor or compromised blood supply as well as in areas of tissue damage. The high levels of oxygen promote capillary growth which brings blood and allows the body to heal. Because of the wide range of clinical conditions responding favorably to hyperbaric oxygen therapy Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) A treatment in which the patient is placed in a chamber and breathes oxygen at higher-than-atmospheric pressure. This high-pressure oxygen stops bacteria from growing and, at high enough pressure, kills them. , it is now being used worldwide. There are approximately 500 hyperbaric centers within hospitals in the United States Lists of hospitals for each U.S. state:
Wound Healing Without question, one of the most widely recognized applications of hyperbaric oxygen has been in the area of wound healing. Over the past 30 years, hundreds of scientific articles have been published describing profound enhancement in healing of a variety of problematic wounds with hyperbaric oxygen therapy. These conditions include decubitous ulcers, venous stasis ulcers, arterial insufficiency ulcers, burns, crush injuries, severed limbs, nonhealing bone fractures, diabetic foot ulcers, brown recluse spider brown recluse spider or violin spider, poisonous nocturnal spider, Loxoceles reclusa, most common in the SE and S central United States. Adults are 3-8 in. bites, poorly healing skin grafts, and osteoradionecrosis (bone damage including surgical, medical and physiotherapeutic techniques as a result of excessive radiation exposure). Stroke There are 1.7 million stroke victims per year. Stroke victims are dramatically helped with hyperbaric treatments. Most patients achieve complete healing when a patient is given treatments immediately after the stroke. Competition There is very little competition of the type described here. Research shows approximately 37 free-standing clinics specializing in hyperbaric therapy in the United States. Of these facilities, only a few are Medicare approved. National Hyperbaric Rehab Center, through its subsidiary Wasatch Hyperbaric, is one of the very few free-standing Medicare-approved facilities in the country at this time. There are less than five other management companies that contract to manage and operate hospital departments with the two largest competitors, each managing more than 50 hospital hyperbaric departments. There are approximately 5,000 hospitals in the United States and approximately 500, or 10% of the total, have hyperbaric medicine departments. The larger facilities are expanding and most hospitals are looking for ways to add this very effective medical modality to their hospital. National believes they have a very effective and attractive package for hospitals to consider and expects to add 10 to 20 locations per year as the company takes on major opportunities throughout the United States.
