Acute peripheral arterial insufficiency

Acute Peripheral Arterial Insufficiency manifests from Peripheral Vascular disease and is atherosclerosis of the extremities, (in most cases lower) causing ischemia. This can lead to ulcers, non-healing wounds and/or gangrene.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in conjunction with other therapies can help arterial blood flow at the cellular level. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy forces oxygen into the body’s tissues and fluids enabling the body to work more efficiently in healing itself.
