Hyperbaric oxygen therapy aids orthopedic surgeons by improving healing in cases of wound hypoxia or infection. This treatment supports orthopedic interventions for better patient outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Hyperbaric Medicine

Background:

  • Wound hypoxia and uncontrolled infection are significant challenges in orthopedic surgery.
  • Anticipating healing problems is crucial for successful orthopedic interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline the most frequent applications of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) for orthopedic surgeons.
  • To highlight HBOT as an adjunct treatment for specific orthopedic complications.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature and clinical practices regarding HBOT in orthopedics.
  • Analysis of scenarios where HBOT is beneficial for orthopedic interventions.

Main Results:

  • HBOT is frequently used as an adjunct therapy in orthopedics.
