Hyperbaric treatment

Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy is a medical treatment in which the patient breathes 100% oxygen inside a pressurized treatment chamber. The aim is to increase the oxygen level in the tissue. It is used in cases where  partial or total tissue hypoxia occurs such as acute limb ischemia, diabetic foot lesion, arterial ulcers and more.

tcpO₂ is widely used to qualify patients for HBO treatment and to monitor the tissue oxygenation during treatment inside the chamber. PeriFlux System 5000 equipped with one or several PF 5040 tcpO₂ Units offers a solution for precise and convenient tcpO₂ measurements. To facilitate measurements inside an HBO chamber, a remote panel system is available. The PeriFlux System 5000 is then positioned outside the chamber and electrodes are connected through the remote panel system.
