To help address non-healing diabetic skin conditions or sores, you may receive a prescription for hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). The wound care clinic on the Avera McKennan campus offers a hyperbaric oxygen chamber.
During this process, you’ll be pressurized with oxygen inside a comfortable and spacious hyperbaric oxygen chamber. While in the chamber, you breathe 100% oxygen at pressures two to three times atmospheric pressure, which stimulates the body's natural healing response.
Including our wound care services, you may receive burn care from experts in emergency surgery, physical therapy, respiratory therapy, skin care and reconstructive procedures. We treat burns from a variety of sources, including:
- Steam, hot-liquid scalding, and flammable liquids and gases
- Fires and inhalation injury from breathing smoke
- Frostbite and hypothermia
- Chemicals
- Electricity
- Sunlight
Right inside our facility, you have access to a wide range of laboratory services that contribute to accurate diagnoses of medical conditions. Expert specialists conduct safe and reliable lab testing, helping you and your provider get the results you need to start an effective and personalized treatment plan.
