Hyperoxygenation & Vasoconstriction

HBOT reverses tissue hypoxia while simultaneously inducing vasoconstriction, reducing edema without compromising oxygen delivery.

Detailed mechanism

At 3.0 ATA breathing 100% oxygen, dissolved plasma oxygen increases by approximately 42%, providing sufficient oxygen to sustain cellular respiration even in the absence of hemoglobin. This is particularly beneficial in compartment syndrome and traumatic brain injury.
