What does a Hyperbaric Chamber do?

An adequate supply of oxygen is quintessential for the tissues to support body function. Injured tissues require even more oxygen to survive, and Hyperbaric oxygen therapy helps acquire larger amounts of oxygen for the blood to carry. This temporary high oxygen supply enhances normal tissue O2 levels even after the treatment is completed.

Why is HBOT used?

HBOT offers the extra oxygen in the blood throughout the body that helps fight bacteria and stimulates the growth factors and stem cells for quicker healing. Medical professionals may suggest hyperbaric oxygen therapy to a person with one or more of the following conditions:

• Crush syndrome
• Stroke
• Arterial gas embolism, i.e., air bubbles in blood vessels
• Gangrene
• Cerebral Palsy
• Severe anemia
• Carbon monoxide poisoning
• Decompression sickness
• Radiation injury
• Traumatic brain injury

Hyperbaric Chambers for wound healing

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is used to make wound healing faster. Wounds need oxygen to heal properly. Hyperbaric chambers expose the body to 100% oxygen at a pressure greater than normal. Some of the wounds that are cured by HBOT are -

• Skin graft or skin flap
• Infection of skin or bone triggering tissue death
• Burns
• Nonhealing wounds (diabetic foot ulcer)

How to setup Dive 33" Hyperbaric Chamber?

• Remove the Summit To Sea Hyperbaric Chamber from the carry bag.
• Lay out the chamber so the zipper is facing up.
• Summit to Sea provides a unique two-zipper combination, one internal air-tight zipper, and one external mechanical zipper.
• First press the two sides of the buckle together until you hear the click.
• It is important to connect the buckles before closing the zippers. This allows the zipper to line up making it easier to zip and taking stress off the zipper.
• Close the internal zipper. If there is any resistance, back up a few inches, realign, then slowly continue to close it. Notice the zipper has a dock ateach end of the zipper. You can apply zipper lubricant on the dock to ease the closure. When the internal zipper pull is placed into the dock an airtight seal is created.
• Close the chamber completely as if it is not completely closed the chamber will not fully pressurize.
• Next close the external zipper. To be sure it is fully closed, pull the zipper string through the safety strap. You will not see the slider when it is fully closed.
• Now that you have both zippers completely closed make sure the reddeflation knob is in the closed position.
• Connect the compressor hoses to the chamber. These fill valve connectors are located on the back of the chamber.
• Simply click the hose onto the fill valves.
• It is recommended to put a small dot of silicone lubricant on the O ring at the end of each fill valve connector.
• Now turn on the power to the compressors and inflate the chamber.
• Now that the chamber is to shape connect the stabilizer cradles to the bottom of the chamber.
• Lift the chamber one end at a time sliding the stabilizer cradles under the chamber and connecting them to the velcro patches that are located on the chamber.
• Now that the stabilizers are attached you will build the frame around the chamber.
• Now connect each velcro strap to the frame overlapping no more than 1”
• Do not connect the zipper handle loops to the frame.
• Do not put the frame through the zipper loops.
• Once you have completed the setup, turn the red deflation knob to release the air and deflate the chamber.
• It is designed to turn in either direction to release air from the chamber. As you turn the knob you will notice that you have control of the speed of deflation.
• It is important that you do not open the zippers unless the gauge reads zero.

How to deflate Dive Chamber?

• With the buckles still connected unzip the outside zipper. Reach under the white strap to grab the pull tab.
• Hold the black zipper loop and pull the zipper open. Be sure to open the zipper all the way.
• Next you will open the inside zipper. Pull the zipper tab on the inside zipper. Open the zipper all the way.
• Next unbuckle the belts.

• We ask that you refrain from bringing in sharp objects such as forks or knives

What happens during the treatment with Summit To Sea Chamber?

As the chamber begins to inflate, you may notice added pressure on the ears. This feeling indicates the need to equalize the pressure. The pressure feeling is similar to that of landing in an airplane. This pressure is relieved through the Eustachian tube.

Methods for relieving the pressure from Oxygen Chamber

• The first, is the Valsavla maneuver. Pinch your nose, close your mouth and try gently blowing out your nose. Repeat every time you begin to feel that pressure Drinking water
• Yawning or opening your mouth wide will also help.
• Lastly, chewing gum may help relieve this pressure.
• If these suggestions do not resolve the ear pressure, open the red relief knob until the feeling of pressure is gone. Then close the red knob to continue to pressurize the chamber. The red relief knob will allow you to control the speed of pressurization to aid in equalizing the pressure on your ears.
