Chronic Refractory Osteomyelitis
Chronic Refractory Osteomyelitis is a bone infection that can be found in both children and adults, though the latter typically suffers from more chronic symptoms. The acute version of the disease could manifest itself in about two weeks, while chronic osteomyelitis may not develop for weeks or months. Symptoms may include chronic pain, prolonged healing of wounds and prolonged discomfort.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) increases oxygen levels in the blood, thereby killing the advance of organisms that prefer minimal oxygen.
HBOT for Chronic Refractory Osteomyelitis
HBOT aids in the treatment of chronic refractory osteomyelitis in the following ways:
- Therapy kills organisms that thrive when oxygen levels are low
- Works in synergy with antibiotics
- Increases oxygen level to affected areas
