Medical Process Improvement

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy has been evolving as an effective method of treating slow healing wounds by increasing the available oxygen in the skin to enhance the healing process. The practice of this therapy requires continuous monitoring of the patient’s response to the oxygen, a process involving a watch and clipboard.

HBO chamber ISTL applied its InfoScribe™ data management system to provide real-time telemetry for each patient that afforded physicians greater knowledge of the human body response to this therapy. The benefit to the patient is better application of this therapy for wound healing and less stress through shorter therapy sessions. These results have driven medical instrument manufacturers to incorporate time-based data management into their products.
