Why Choose Hyperbaric Solutions

Hyperbaric Solutions knows the best decisions are informed decisions. That's why our staff strive to provide you with the most thorough exam and consultation so that you have the information you need to decide if HBO is right for you.

Our goal is not to perform as many procedures as possible but to educate potential patients as to whether or not they are good candidates for HBO. With experimental indications we will provide the patient with the most up to date information from medical journals and symposiums so that they can make a quality decision.
Our organization is committed to quality patient care and maximizing the benefit that HBO may provide.

Preliminary Physical Exam

Before any HBO treatment a exam by a qualified doctor should be performed to assess the patient’s health and establish a base line of physical data to determine if the HBO sessions are providing benefit to the patient throughout the sessions and asses when the maximum benefit possible is reached.

Consultation

Most of our patients started with a consultation over the phone to establish if there was a good fit to go to the next step and arrange a physical examination.

Before Choosing a HBO Provider

HBO is a medical treatment and as such all equipment and facilities should be approved by the appropriate authorities HBO personnel should be trained to operate HBO equipment and be aware of all safety considerations concerning pressurized oxygen.

HBO Facility Approvals CSA, NFPA, TSSA, Health Canada
Qualification of HBO Staff Undersea & Hyperbaric Medical Society (UHMS)

Hyperbaric Solutions facilities meet all of the above approvals. Copies of those certificates may be requested in writing

The two most important elements of a successful HBO treatment program are experienced, trained personnel and the most advanced equipment which is operated in a safety first environment.

In addition to preliminary and ongoing medical examinations throughout the HBO sessions Hyperbaric Solutions use transcutaneous oxygen tension measurement to predict the outcome in diabetic patients with peripheral ischemia and problem wounds. Also where deemed necessary arterial blood gas samples may be analyzed to establish appropriate hyperbaric pressures for patients with abnormal pulmonary function. Wherever possible magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is recommended to establish the baseline in treatment of stroke victims receiving HBO treatments to determine effectiveness of HBO.
