Gas Gangrene
Gas gangrene is a serious infection secondary to the gas-forming bacteria Clostridium. This bacteria contaminates the wound and allows gas to get trapped under the skin, killing body tissue. Symptoms, such as high fevers, blisters, and continuous inflammation, oftentimes appear quickly and get worse within a short amount of time.
The use of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) to treat gas gangrene aims to keep swelling down and bacteria from spreading to other parts of the body.

HBOT for Gas Gangrene
HBOT benefits patients with gas gangrene in the following ways:
- Helps kill bacteria and prevent the infection from spreading
- Reduces swelling
- Promotes tissue healing
- Improves pain
