What is a typical hyperbaric chamber treatment like?
After the prescription by the specialist, this is possibly the most frequently asked question. That is why in this article we want to resolve some doubts about what a typical treatment in a hyperbaric chamber is like.
How many sessions are necessary?
A typical treatment in a hyperbaric chamber consists of an average of 20 sessions and lasts approximately one month at the rate of a daily session, resting on weekends depending on the availability of the clinic or hospital. Each session lasts between 80 and 110 min. where pressures of between 2 and 3 absolute atmospheres must be reached.
How long does a Hyperbaric Chamber treatment last?
The average number of sessions in the hyperbaric chamber for each treatment is 20 and its administration is recommended to be continuous and successive. Occasionally more than one daily session can be administered as long as there is a gap of at least six hours between sessions.
How long does each session in the hyperbaric chamber last?
The typical session in the hyperbaric chamber lasts an average of 80 minutes. During this time, three phases are formed, the filling of the chamber (pressurization), the treatment phase (isopression), and the depressurization or emptying. In other words, you have to remove the air inside the chamber and then fill it with pure medical oxygen (99.9%) and increase the pressure inside, then maintain the pressure for a certain time (always maintaining continuous ventilation) and finally empty the chamber gradually lowering the pressure. For the treatment to be effective, pressures between 2 and 3 absolute atmospheres are reached inside the Hyperbaric Chamber.
How should I go to the hyperbaric chamber sessions?
The sessions in the hyperbaric chamber are carried out with pure medicinal oxygen at high pressures, so we must considerably increase the security measures. The clothing to receive the sessions is provided in the clinic itself and is made of 100×100 cotton. It is necessary to go without any type of products on the body, such as oils, creams, lotions, hair spray, etc. Ideally, to enter the hyperbaric chamber is to come after receiving a normal shower.
What does it feel like during sessions in the hyperbaric chamber?
The hyperbaric chamber is filled with medicinal oxygen. Oxygen is a gas that is normally relaxing for the patient, it is normal to sleep inside the chamber. You can change posture during treatment and move as needed by each person. Due to the effect of the pressure increase, the temperature rises between 2 and 3 degrees inside the chamber, creating a warm environment. Some units have entertainment systems so patients can watch TV or listen to music while receiving treatment.
