Urology
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can serve as a powerful adjunctive treatment for Urology patients. It accelerates urological wound healing by reducing acute and chronic inflammation, stimulating angiogenesis through endothelial proliferation, improving plasma oxygen levels up to 1200%, reducing scar tissue, stimulating fibroblast, lymphocyte and macrophage activity, and exerting bactericidal effects among others.
Many urological patients who experience tremendous benefit from HBOT are those who are experiencing radiation injury from prostate cancer treatments. Conditions such as radiation cystitis, radiation prostatitis, and radiation proctitis show tremendous benefit with hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Symptoms such as pelvic or rectal pain, erectile dysfunction, severe dysuria, intermittent or constant hematuria, and urinary incontinence may be improved through HBOT.
