We believe the human body thrives under pressure.

There is immense potential in the science behind what is known as Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. The medical community is beginning to embrace long established treatment methods using high pressure oxygen therapy towards a growing number of acute and severe trauma applications.

Hypervan Innovations is a pre-clinical medical technology company dedicated to implementing a wide scale hyperbaric system for use in the next generation of Emergency Medical response units.

Our proprietary system seamlessly incorporates hyperbarics via a cutting edge mobile pod design.

We are pioneering the enhanced use of this process with the introduction of a state of the art ambulance module which can be scaled to a variety of sizes and applications.

Our Mission: Mobilize and deliver HBOT to victims of severe trauma, saving thousands of lives and enhancing the quality of recovery rates for countless more.

PROPRIETARY SYSTEM DESIGN

Our Story: From the depths, a breakthrough emerges.

Currently, in the offshore commercial diving industry, deck decompression chambers (DDC’s) are kept onsite to provide recompression protocols for divers returning from depth and to treat the decompression illness. DDC’s are pressure vehicles for human occupancy (PVHO). Qualified/certified medical technicians are required outside the DDC to determine medical protocol and in life-threatening situations are required to enter the PVHO to render examination and treatment.

PVHO’s are also found in medical and military facilities world-wide to provide treatment for various ailments employing hyperbaric oxygen therapy. At such facilities medical technicians are available for support both outside and inside the PVHO.

Dr. Keith Van Meter has a long history of saving lives in unconventional situations. A renowned heart surgeon by training, his true passion lies in field work most notably working as emergency practitioner for commercial offshore divers. Dr. Van Meter has treated many extreme cases of injury at depths which require the use of decompression before coming to surface. As a key opinion leader and pioneer in the field of hyperbaric oxygen treatment, he witnessed first hand the remarkable life saving advantages of the technology and developed processes to administer the treatment more effectively- The Doctor's research from the past three decades has proven that if HBOT could be delivered to emergency victims in a more timely manner, the effects could be revolutionary.

In the emergency medical field, hyperbaric oxygen medical treatment (HBOT) provides life sustaining and, in some cases, life saving therapy. In emergency medical conditions such as carbon monoxide poisoning, air/gas embolism or cardiopulmonary arrest a patient’s only hope for survival or limb preservation may be emergent HBO treatment.

Currently, a patient in need of HBO must await wait the commencement of HBO treatment upon arrival and introduction into a pressure vessel for human occupancy (PVHO) at a HBO medical facility staffed with medically certified technicians working under the direction and supervision of HBO board certified physicians. All HBO emergency facilities are attached to university, military, private and public hospitals.

The Hypervan system safely and seamlessly delivers patients who could benefit from Hyperbaric Oxygen.

MEDICAL SCIENCE

The Principles of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy:

The HyperBarics field is relatively small, yet gaining significant traction annually. HyperBaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) treats patients by increasing the air pressure in a controlled environment and administering pure Oxygen. The blood's ability to deliver Oxygen throughout the body is the key to life, and the HBO treatment facilitates this fundamental function by supercharging the complex network of blood vessels, greatly improving the body's natural ability to heal itself.

HyperBaric Oxygen Therapy has been approved for treatment for the following: carbon monoxide poisoning, air or gas embolism, crush injury, compartment syndrome, acute traumatic ischemias, decompression sickness, severe anemia, intracranial abscess, necrotizing soft tissue infections. acute thermal burn injury, clostridas myositis and myonecrosis (gas gangrene), delayed radiation injury and compromised grafts and flaps....in theory, there are potentially more conditions which may be treatable and yet to be discovered.
