Hyperbaric Hard Chamber

What is Micro Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

Micro Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (MHBOT) is an advanced medical treatment using 96% pure oxygen in a pressurized

chamber. It boosts oxygen solubility in blood and tissues, reaching deep into areas with poor blood flow.

China leads in MHBOT implementation, with 2,107 hospitals and over 5,600 chambers nationwide, highlighting its growing importance in clinical practice.

2019 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine Results Explained

Three scientists won the 2019 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for discovering how cells sense and adapt to oxygen levels via HIF-1. HIF-1 levels change with oxygen content, regulating gene expression under hypoxic conditions.

Their work laid the groundwork for studying cellular adaptation to hypoxia, paving the way for treatments for anemia, tumors, and ischemic-hypoxic diseases.

Further research has expanded the HIF pathway's regulatory network, leading to new therapeutic drugs and potential treatments for more diseases.

As an advanced medical equipment, the benefits of hyperbaric oxygen chamber are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1. Increase the oxygen content of the body

Principle: By pressurizing oxygen, the hyperbaric oxygen chamber allows people to inhale oxygen concentrations in the chamber that are much higher than those in the normal environment, usually reaching more than four times the normal oxygen concentration. This high-pressure and high-oxygen environment can significantly increase the oxygen content of the body.

Function: Increasing the oxygen content in the blood has a significant effect on the treatment of carbon monoxide poisoning, brain edema and other diseases. At the same time, it can also promote the aerobic metabolism of cells and have a certain effect on inhibiting the growth and reproduction of anaerobic bacteria, thereby achieving the purpose of anti-infection.

2. Improve drug efficacy
Mechanism: Hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy can improve the therapeutic effect of some drugs, such as antibiotics, antiviral drugs, etc. By increasing the body's oxygen content, it can promote the drugs to work better, thereby accelerating the recovery of the disease.

3. Promote nerve regeneration
Function: When the body is deficient in oxygen, it will cause brain damage. Hyperbaric oxygen chamber treatment can improve the blood supply to the brain, repair damaged nerve tissue, and promote nerve regeneration. This is useful for the treatment of cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral infarction, cerebral palsy, etc. Diseases play an important role.

4. Regulate immune function
Effect: Hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy can accelerate the repair of damaged cells and improve the immune function of patients, which is of great significance to enhance the resistance of patients and prevent and treat infectious diseases.

5. Treatment of specific diseases
Indications: Hyperbaric oxygen chamber has a wide range of indications, including harmful gas poisoning (such as carbon monoxide poisoning), neurological diseases (such as hypoxic-ischemic brain injury), anaerobic bacterial infections, etc. Through hyperbaric oxygen chamber treatment, it can significantly Improve the prognosis and quality of life of patients.

In addition to the previously mentioned benefits of increasing the body's oxygen content, improving drug efficacy, promoting nerve regeneration, regulating immune function, and treating specific diseases, hyperbaric oxygen chambers have some other noteworthy benefits:

1. Relieve pain and swelling

2. Promote wound healing

3. Improve intelligence and work efficiency

4. Prevention of elderly diseases

5. Improve mental state

There are some other noteworthy benefits of hyperbaric chambers:

1. Antibacterial effect

2. Improve blood circulation

3. Eliminate fatigue and improve body resistance

4. Promote post-exercise recovery
