Medical Standards for Hyperbaric Treatment

Medical standards for hyperbaric treatment ensure patient safety and effective therapy by defining appropriate indications, treatment protocols, and equipment requirements. They specify which conditions—such as decompression sickness, chronic wounds, or radiation injuries—are suitable for hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Standards also set guidelines for trained healthcare providers, safety procedures, and monitoring during treatment to prevent risks like oxygen toxicity or Barotrauma. Overall, these standards help ensure that hyperbaric treatment is delivered consistently, safely, and effectively, aligning with the best evidence-based practices.
