Introducing the World’s First Mobilized Hyperbaric Treatment System.
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.
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.
