Mosaic Life Care's website describes Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy at the St. Joseph, Missouri Wound Care center as part of the Mosaic Life Care system. The center uses monoplace hyperbaric chambers large enough to hold a seven-foot patient. Pressure can be increased up to three times normal atmospheric pressure (typical treatment is twice atmospheric or less), with 100% pure oxygen continuously circulated. Because the entire chamber is pressurized with oxygen rather than room air, no mask or hood is needed; while breathing pure O2, blood plasma becomes saturated, carrying 15-20 times the normal amount of oxygen to body tissues. About 16% of wound care patients treated may require HBOT to support oxygen-dependent natural wound-healing mechanisms. The center also addresses many conditions still considered experimental by mainstream medicine despite decades of reported benefit.
