Hard Or Soft Hyperbaric Chamber - Which Is Better?

[@marcielynn4886]

As a hyperbaric technician, large metal chamders that connecred to each other was our go to.

[@lauriebezilla9190]

So, as I understand, having a soft camber without an oxygenator is not as effective as a soft chamber with an oxygenator. I have a Solaris soft chamber with an oxygenator for supplementation that I recently purchased. However, I have not used it yet pending gaining as much information as possible. Thank you..very interesting and informative 👍

I’ve heard the biggest difference being the pressure levels you can use in them. The hard chamber can be used at higher pressures which is better for your body.

Insurance companies often deny HBOT except for life and death circumstances. Wound healing, like leg ulcers, might not be approved

[@HBOTUSA]

Yes that is true. Those are on label indications meaning you could at least bill insurance for them and they can be considered for reimbursement but of course each insurance company get to decide what criteria they deem to be medically necessary and reimbursable

[@mbdulka]

Higher pressures get you results faster, that's about it. If you have a medical condition that needs immediate treatment, hard chambers and higher pressures are better. Else soft chambers at lower pressure with a longer protocol will get you the same result.

Really looking forward to the stem cell results for a soft chamber!! I currently am on session 6 of mild HBOt, 3 months post surgery, and I feel it’s definitely helping with the residual swelling I had been dealing with. But there’s a center near me that has hard chambers so I’m thinking I might do another 10 sessions there after these 10 sessions based off what you shared here 🙏🏽🤍

is an oxygen concentrator necessary with mild hbot its my understanding saturation is increased from 24% to 93% with concentrator in soft chamber

[@marytheresekiladah5185]

Thank you very much for this great informative video. My daughter is 26 years old and her SPECT scan showed many parts of her brain lack oxygen which affects here memory, thinking and causes many mental problems like ADD and thoughts disorder. She was born like that due to lake of oxygen while delivery. The Dr recommended the hyperbaric therapy but he said that the oxygen is between 20% and 35%. I ordered the soft chamber which by itself (as you mentioned 21%. My question is, is the chamber by itself could give my daughter a good effect to her conditions or I should add a concentrator to get good benifits for her?

[@HBOTUSA]

While we can't give medical advice over KZbin (you can always setup a consultation with us by emailing [e-mail]), generally speaking, air only soft chambers do have benefits. But using a concentrator should have even more benefits than air alone.

[@robbynuez4105]

If I buy a soft shell HBOT. can you get more benefits from a soft shell hyperbaric chamber if I bring in a pure oxygen tank with a mask to breath in purer oxygen?

[@pnoy15]

Why is supplementing the soft chamber with an extra percentage of oxygen not an option to increase it to around 50% instead of only 21% room air?

[@HBOTUSA]

Due to the fire risk. The proper (and most effective) way to increase your oxygen absorption while in the chamber is to breath supplemental oxygen through a mask.

[@samimaaroufi4841]

My wife is getting a heart and kidney transplant, do you think hbot might help her? She will be taking many immunosuppressants and I'm wondering how hbot would react to that? Thank you for your videos

[@HBOTUSA]

There is no obvious reason someone getting transplants could not use HBOT. She can definitely pre-treat before her surgeries, and I'd expect that would help. Post surgery she would need to make sure she is completely stabilized and cleared for additional HBOT, but it should certainly help her recovery.

[@anthonyman8008]

Did she get it? The body can rejuvenate when you provide the necessary nutrients and eliminate toxins!

[@anandgaikwad1897]

O2 concentration results is good as compare O2 cylinder

[@xpertprinting]

So, what's the difference than using a cpap with oxygen concentrator with a full face mask?

[@HBOTUSA]

The difference is breathing oxygen under pressure (in a hyperbaric chamber). It's the pressure that drives more oxygen into the plasma of your blood, bypassing the red blood cells. This is only possible while breathing under more pressure than normal. This doesn't happen when breathing oxygen at regular pressure. At regular pressure, you rely on red blood cell carrying capacity, which can only be 100%.

Doctor, is this your first choice of soft HBOT chambers? The VITAERIS 320 HBOT ?

[@HBOTUSA]

Great question! From a safety standpoint, an FDA approved chamber is critical. There are a few approved soft chambers that we like, and there are several factors to consider when selecting one. We'd love to chat and help you select the right one for you! Shoot us an email with your contact info to [e-mail] and we'll be in touch.

[@chrism2794]

Doc, I love your content. But why do you always say soft = 1.3 ATA when they can go up to 1.5 ATA. Please sir. Help me .

[@HBOTUSA]

FDA approved soft chambers are limited to 1.3 ATA, and we don't recommend using chambers that are not FDA approved.

What about rabies and tetanus? Theoretically, both are anaerobic pathogens tha die quickly in an aerobic environment. The saturation of O2 could potentially treat rabies victims.

[@MarcMERLIN]

what law actually states that soft chambers can only legally be 1.3 ATA in the US?

[@HBOTUSA]

Hyperbaric chambers are medical devices regulated by the fda. The fda is who has regulated soft chambers to 1.3 ata

[@MarcMERLIN]

​@@HBOTUSA I hear this claim often, but to this day no one has shown me clear regulation from the FDA that states 1.5 ATA and above soft chambers are illegal to own or operate , or even sell in the US. They are simply not approved for any FDA approved treatment. You also know that multiple companies currently sell 1.5 ATA chambers or above. If it were illegal, I do believe the FDA would stop them. So, until I have someone show me clear regulation they are illegal to buy/sell/use for off label treatments, I will continue to question this "1.3 ATA max" statement. I am happy to be told I'm wrong and properly educated, but I need to have a clear regulation that states so and then basically some understanding that sales of 1.5 ATA and above in the US are illegal but that the FDA doesn't have the resources to enforce it.

[@nerychristian]

You should reach out to the manufacturers. They would probably have the regulations for them

[@MarcMERLIN]

@@nerychristianall I found is that this limitation apparently applies to US manufacturers only, but you can buy from non US ones and use those in the US. Sucks for US companies. 😞

As their is in the scientific literature extensive laboratory and clinical evidence supporting the role of Ozone in blood vessel protection and Endothelial Cell function: Ozone has been shown to improve: hemodynamic stress, hazardous NOS activity, endothelial cell function, oxidative stress, is vasoprotective, anti inflammatory, lowers blood pressure and has vasodilatory properties.

In the U.S., soft chambers are only FDA approved up to 1.3 ATA. To go higher, you need to use a hard chamber, which can generally go up to 3 ATA.

Is 1.3ATM equivalent to 7metres

[@MrCees64]

1.3 ATA is equivalent to 3 meter water pressure. 2.4 ATA is the standard for multi chamber HBOT facilities in the Netherlands and equivalent with 14 meter water pressure

There is a video with 83 year old doctor claiming he increased his telomeres length by 100%: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qX7XdGdmfaaYpbs What do you think about it? It lacks specific information about this test, like the exact model of the chamber, pressure, duration of the sessions, percentage of oxygen, etc. I am pretty sure you won't get the same results in inflatable chambers and perhaps some of the health clinic chamber models. It would be nice to know if this is repeatable, so let's say you your 60 sessions and get X % of telomere length increase. You wait couple of years and do another set of 60 sessions. Would you get the same result? Would it be a bit less? Would it be a lot less or is this just one off effect which is not repeatable? Also is there any research with younger people? I would assume you won't get 100% increase in length, but would it be the same in absolute increase or maybe even better? Is there a risk of getting cancer through this therapy?

[@jossib1446]

2 ATM is 10 times more efficient then 1.3 ATM

[@HBOTUSA]

Not necessarily. It depends on what you're applying HBOT for. There are instances (depending on that specific patient's issues, needs, or goals) where lower pressures are actually more effective or more tolerable.
