CARDIOLOGY
CARDIOLOGY
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can serve as a adjunctive treatment for cardiology patients. The use of HBOT to precondition or treat patients with cardiac problems can lead to improved myocardial function after surgical or non-surgical procedures, reducing the length of intensive care stay and limiting complications.
How hyperbarics can complement your care?
- Decreases re-perfusion injury
- Stimulates angiogenesis
- Enhances stem cell proliferation from the bone marrow and migration to the area of injury
- Improve mitochondrial function
- Decreases inflammation
