How the Mayo Clinic heals wounds

The world-famous Mayo Clinic uses hyperbaric oxygenation to treat a wide variety of non-healing wounds and ulcers, tissue injuries, and radiation tissue injury, and the same service is available here in Galway.

OxyGeneration is a non-emergency private hyperbaric oxygenation facility that is dramatically improving its clients’ quality of life. Some healthcare insurers cover treatment at OxyGeneration.

Hyperbaric oxygenation should be used as part of a comprehensive care plan for diabetic foot ulcers, non-healing wounds, and certain vascular ulcers. One OxyGeneration client had a non-healing wound for 557 days that required daily dressing changes, but after 26 sessions of hyperbaric oxygenation, the wound closed for the first time. The wound no longer required daily dressing changes and after a total of 43 sessions, the client was able to return to work.

Hyperbaric oxygenation helps these wounds heal by providing oxygen to the damaged tissue and encouraging the growth of new blood vessels. It is a non-invasive treatment with minimal side effects and the knock-on benefits of hyperbaric oxygenation are huge. Users heal faster and are able to avoid multiple dressing changes and maybe even surgery. Hyperbaric oxygenation also helps with radiation tissue injury. It can help the injured tissue heal and help relieve certain side effects of cancer radiation treatment (eg, inflammation, bladder damage, change of bowel movements, and bone damage ).
