Hyperbaric oxygen therapy was mostly applied to decompression sickness, known as divers' disease in the past. Over the last decade, it received more attention and promotion, with the scope of therapy expanded. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can provide unintended efficacy for refractory diseases.

The volume of air bubbles in the body is reduced by using the principle of pressure and gas volume size. Clinically, such a principle is mainly used to treat decompression sickness and arterial gas embolism.

High-concentration oxygenation in plasma causes vasoconstriction and is able to control the cavity pressure of the injured limb and the interstitial edema in the transplanted tissue. Clinically, such a principle can be used to treat compartment syndrome crush and contusion injury, acute burn, and cerebral edema.

By utilizing the principle of the action of peroxide, the efficacy of destruction and inhibition of the growth of bacteria is achieved, and the phagocytosis of white blood cells is increased. Clinically, this principle can be used to treat gas gangrene and wounds that are difficult to cure or heal, such as osteomyelitis and diabetic foot.

Carbon monoxide poisoning and decompression sickness noted above fall into the category of emergency medicine, while the rest are in interdisciplinary areas such as from surgery and orthopedics. The center founded in 2000 adopted a multiplace hyperbaric oxygen chamber, with a capacity of 12 persons. The center is composed of many undersea and hyperbaric medical specialists and professional nursing technicians in combination with divisions of vascular surgery, plastic surgery, general surgery, neurosurgery, orthopedics, dermatology, neurology, and oral surgery for jointly offering patients high-quality medical services.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is an excellent treatment under proper operation, but it can also cause injury if not used properly. While receiving hyperbaric oxygen therapy, it is necessary, depending on the circumstances, to cooperate with internal medicine therapy or surgical debridement to get a good therapeutic effect. Therefore, the integrated team of hyperbaric oxygen therapy needs considerable training and professional cognition.
