hüperbaariliseks

hüperbaariliseks refers to hyperbaric oxygen therapy, a medical treatment that involves breathing pure oxygen in a special pressurized chamber. This therapy is used to treat a variety of conditions, particularly those involving poor circulation or lack of oxygen in the body's tissues. By increasing the amount of oxygen in the blood, hyperbaric oxygen therapy can promote healing, reduce inflammation, and combat certain types of infections.

The chambers used in hyperbaric therapy are typically either monoplace, designed for one person, or multiplace, which can accommodate several patients simultaneously. Inside the chamber, the atmospheric pressure is increased to two to three times normal atmospheric pressure. This elevated pressure allows the lungs to gather much more oxygen than would be possible at normal air pressure. This extra oxygen is then transported throughout the body via the bloodstream, reaching areas that may be struggling to receive adequate oxygen due to injury or illness.

Conditions that can be treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy include decompression sickness, carbon monoxide poisoning, and certain non-healing wounds, such as diabetic foot ulcers. It is also sometimes used to aid recovery after radiation therapy or to treat specific infections. The duration and frequency of treatment sessions vary depending on the patient's condition and the specific protocol being followed. While generally safe, hyperbaric oxygen therapy can have side effects, such as temporary changes in vision or ear discomfort.
