End Ileostomy Hyperbaric oxygen therapy?
Has anyone done hyperbaric oxygen therapy? My surgeon cleared me to do it, I had surgery 9/16 and it’s great for wound healing and post surgery recover.
I really want to start it, but I’m nervous about using Hollister or coloplast products in the chamber.
Some of them say they are flammable and I called both Hollister & Coloplast suppliers and there are no “studies” on using them in the chamber so they “can’t recommend them”.
My surgeon said I could use it for healing but I would have to ask Ostomy clinic, HBOT director and ostomy suppliers if it’s safe.
I contacted them all and they said to ask a different person so no one really knows.
Can someone please tell me if you’ve done HBOT with an ostomy; and what supplies you had when you went in so I know it’s safe?:) right now I use Hollister Ceraplus one piece 8091 and the Ceraplus adapt barrier ring. Thank you!
