What is hyperbaric oxygen?
Hyperbaric oxygen refers to breathing pure oxygen in an environment above atmospheric pressure. Ordinary oxygen inhalation is under atmospheric pressure, not pure oxygen, and the oxygen concentration and pressure are small, and the effect is not as good as that of hyperbaric oxygen. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can increase oxygen partial pressure, increase blood oxygen and tissue oxygen content, and improve oxygen diffusion rate and effective diffusion distance. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can shrink cerebral vessels, reduce cerebral blood flow, relieve brain edema and correspondingly reduce intracranial pressure. It can also promote collateral circulation and form nerve cells that protect ischemic areas. A large number of microvascular formation can repair some diseased cerebral vessels, improve brain metabolism, restore brain function, and also help to activate the system and promote awakening and life center function activities. Hyperbaric oxygen generally refers to pumping oxygen into human cerebral vessels at a pressure greater than 10 times the oxygen pressure, increasing the oxygen exchange rate and improving the ischemic and hypoxic state of the brain. Generally, it can be used to treat hypoxic diseases caused by brain trauma, cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral ischemia and cerebral poisoning.

In this case, through the treatment of hyperbaric oxygen, the blood supply and oxygen supply to the brain can be quickly restored, thus playing a role in brain protection. Especially for acute poisoning, bleeding, trauma and other diseases, it can play a very good role. It can also treat diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and Harmo's disease. Through the treatment of hyperbaric oxygen, the oxygen supply to the brain can be quickly restored and the hypoxia state of the brain can be improved.
