      General Info
      Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy With Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy ( HBOT ) one breathes 100% oxygen at pressures ( baric ) greater ( hyper ) than sea level atmospheric pressure, which enhances the body's natural-healing process virtually risk free. Hyperbaric Medicine grew out of the problems encountered by divers exposed to high pressures. Hyperbarics represents an emerging medical specialty whose scientific basis, while supported by over 6, 000 studies, continues to be explored. Today, HBOT is approved for use in air embolism, blood loss, bone infections, burns, carbon monoxide poisoning ( smoke inhalation ), crush injuries, decompression sickness, gangrene, soft tissue infections, intracranial abscess, non-healing wounds, radiation tissue damage, and skin grafts. Other conditions that show evidence of HBOT value as a treatment include: stroke ( cerbrovascular accident ), head injury ( cerebral edema/coma ), cerebral palsy, bone-fracture, acute retinal artery occlusion, migraine & cluster headaches, chronic fatigue-syndrome ( CFS ), sports injuries, AIDS, sickle cell anemia crisis, acute spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis ( MS ), Lyme disease, diabetic retinopathy, colitis, diabetic foot ulcers, and plastic/reconstructive surgery ( preparation and recovery ). While these conditions are-considered off-label indications for HBOT, there is stronger scientific evidence for a-number of these indications than there is for almost half of all the approved indications; nevertheless, because these conditions are off-label, by law no claims can be made. Hyperbaric Medical Center of New Mexico, under the supervision and directorship of Kenneth Stoller, MD, will provide consultation for any indication which HBOT has been shown to benefit, approved or off-label. Physician referral is desirable, but no one will be excluded because of lack of physician referral. Patients who seek out HBOT are often facing life-threatening medical problems and have exhausted established medical treatment options, which is why Hyperbaric Medical Center of New Mexico adheres to the highest professional and ethical standards when using HBOT for new and unapproved medical indications. We strongly believe it is important to provide hyperbaric therapy on a compassionate basis for unapproved indications, using clear guidelines for specific conditions. Our state-of-the-art facility is open now. The Collet ( Quebec ) trial [ 1 ] that was published in the Lancet in 2001, and was the largest randomized trial of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy ( HBOT ) for children with cerebral palsy ( CP ) and it followed the McGill pilot study on the same subject [ 2 ]. The evidence showed that both groups of children treated with two very different hyperbaric treatment dosages improved significantly. The motor improvements that were seen and measured with the G.M.F.M. [ 3 ] were greater; more generalized, and were obtained in a shorter period of time than most of the changes found in any other studies of recognized conventional therapies in the treatment of children with cerebral palsy [ 4-17 ]. The children in both groups improved an average of ten times more during the two months of HBO ( whilst all other therapies and medication were stopped ) than during the three months follow-up ( when medication and all the ancillary treatments were restarted ). This impressive change in the rate of improvements clearly indicates the probable effectiveness of hyperbaric treatment. The Lancet commentary [ 19 ] and even the flawed tech report by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality ( AHRQ ) [ 20 ] concluded that the hypothesis of both treatments being equally effective should be retained, possibly as the main hypothesis. As an aside, the 2003 AHRQ report, guided by its UHMS handlers, attempted to put their stamp of disapproval on using hyperbaric oxygen for neuro-rehabilitation in children, but th
