Topical Oxygen

Topical oxygen is a treatment used to deliver high concentrations of oxygen to the body. It is usually administered through the skin to bypass the patient's respiratory system. This method aims to promote healing by providing additional oxygen to the tissues.

Physical Properties

Colorless and Odorless: Oxygen is a colorless and odorless gas.
High Concentration: Topical oxygen therapy is usually applied at high concentrations, with an oxygen content of 80% or higher.

Production

Oxygen Cabinets: In a closed environment, the patient receives treatment in a cabin that will fill their body with oxygen.
Oxygen Masks: Through face or nose masks, the patient breathes high concentrations of oxygen.
Oxygen Chambers: In closed rooms, treatment is provided in an environment with increased oxygen concentration.

Areas of Use

Wound Healing: Used to accelerate wound healing and reduce the risk of infection.
Burns: In burn treatment, oxygen can be applied to support tissue healing.
Neurological Problems: It can be used in the treatment of some neurological problems, especially in nerve damage due to poisoning.
Circulatory Problems: It can be used in circulatory problems, especially in chronic wound healing problems.

Safety

Specialist Supervision: Topical oxygen therapy should be managed by qualified healthcare professionals.
Controlled Environment: Oxygen concentration and treatment duration should be carefully controlled during administration.

Topical oxygen is a treatment method that provides positive effects, especially on wound healing. However, it should be applied carefully and under expert control.
