May is HYPERBARIC AWARENESS MONTH.

Our body’s tissues need oxygen to function.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) involves breathing 100% pure oxygen while in a hyperbaric chamber. The air pressure inside is raised to a level that is higher than normal air pressure. This increased air pressure helps the lungs collect more oxygen, getting it to the tissues that need it to help the body fight certain infections.

HBOT is used to treat 14 approved conditions, such as acute carbon monoxide intoxication, diabetic foot wounds/ulcers, gas gangrene, crush injuries and more.

The Wound Treatment Center at OGHS is the leading HBOT center in the state with over 30 years of experience, providing state of the art HBOT care on a wide spectrum of conditions.

For more information, call 337.948.5100.

The month of April is designated as NATIONAL LIMB LOSS and LIMB DIFFERENCE AWARENESS MONTH.

The goal is to educate the public about limb loss and difference—including its causes, prevention, and the challenges faced by individuals living with limb loss. It also recognizes the strength and resilience of individuals with limb loss and difference community and to foster a bigger sense of inclusion and belonging.

Prevention is also highlighted: the importance early intervention, managing risk factors like diabetes and vascular disease, and promoting safe practices for those at risk.

….but TWTC practices limb loss and limb difference awareness *every* month as we educate our patients on a regular basis regarding their risk factors, prevention practices and strive to help our patients with limb loss feel included and work towards helping them get the resources they need to thrive after the loss of a limb.

The ultimate TWTC goal is to avoid patient limb loss always.
