Effective wound management is critical to patient care in modern hospital settings, particularly for individuals suffering from chronic, non-healing, or complex wounds. Among the advanced therapies now integrated into wound care programs, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has emerged as a valuable and evidence-based option. Delivered in a hyperbaric chamber, this treatment provides patients with 100 percent oxygen at pressures greater than normal atmospheric levels, creating physiological effects that enhance healing and improve outcomes in a hospital environment.
