Hyperbaric medicine is the medical therapy where the patient’s body is brought to a pressure greater that the atmospheric one (> 1.4 ATA) and the patient breathes 100% oxygen. By using the hyperbaric chamber, the partial oxygen pressure in the tissues is increased.
This therapy heightens the body’s oxygen to levels not normally achieved when breathing pure oxygen under normal conditions, this means that the blood will carry more oxygen.
Costamed Cozumel Hospital has the most advanced Hyperbaric Chamber in the Mexican Caribbean and Central America; with capacity for up to 14 patients and high-end equipment and technology, certified by the ASME ABS and PVHO group in accordance with international standards, besides having pressure treatments with a capacity of up to 6 ATA, being preferred suppliers of DAN (Divers Alert Network).
