Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is the administration of continuous or intermittent 100% oxygen at a pressure greater than 1 atmosphere absolute (ATA) in a closed system. Patients breathe oxygen through a mask, hood, or endotracheal intubation tube once the planned pressure level is achieved [1]. Pressure chambers are used to administer HBOT. Pressure chambers are generally classified as monoplace and multiplace pressure chambers (Fig. 19.1).

摘要

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is the administration of continuous or intermittent 100% oxygen at a pressure greater than 1 atmosphere absolute (ATA) in a closed system. Patients breathe oxygen through a mask, hood, or endotracheal intubation tube once the planned pressure level is achieved [1]. Pressure chambers are used to administer HBOT. Pressure chambers are generally classified as monoplace and multiplace pressure chambers (Fig. 19.1).
