Abstract: A controller is operable to selectively supply gas to, and evacuate gas from, regions of a hyperbaric wound treatment chamber. The controller operates to inflate a passage or rib of the device to provide that the device is made sufficiently rigid for inserting a limb therethrough, and inflate an inflatable cuff to create a seal against the limb. The controller also operates to evacuate ambient air trapped within the chamber, and optionally partially evacuate the passage or rib, after the seal is created by the inflatable cuff, and then introduce oxygen into the chamber, and optionally inflate the passage or rib. The cuff, when inflated and creating a seal against a limb, optionally is at least partially within the chamber, and the treatment gas is supplied to the chamber to maintain the seal of the cuff against the limb.

Abstract: A limb wound treatment device is described having a first end, a second end and an interior therebetween for accommodating a treatment gas. The device can include a flexible housing that can be inflated. The first end can include an inflatable cuff seal for hermetically sealing against the limb being treated. The second end can include a closed end or an access port that is releasably sealed with a clamping mechanism. Further, the device can include a controller that can inflate that housing, inflate the cuff seal and provide treatment gas to the interior, in response to pressures within the cuff seal and the housing. Further, the device can accommodate different types of wound treatments, such as hyperbaric therapy, compression therapy or negative pressure therapy.

Abstract: A wound treatment device includes a seal of variable size for attaching the device to various locations on a patient for treatment of wounds or lesions. The seal has a plurality of weakened areas which allow portions of the seal to be removed for increasing the size of the seal opening to accommodate wounds or lesions of different size.

Abstract: In an embodiment of the present invention, a wound treatment device can include a rigid housing having a housing wall with a first end and a second end forming a chamber therebetween. The device can further include an inflatable cuff releasably coupled to the housing wall at the first end. The housing wall can include a sidewall having an opening, a cover for closing the opening, and a clamp for releasably fastening the cover to the sidewall surrounding the opening.

Abstract: A hyperbaric oxygen device and methods of applying hyperbaric oxygen are disclosed. The device comprises an enclosure including a collapsible bag defined by two sheets of fluid impervious material sealed together at both ends such that gas can be delivered between the sheets to inflate the enclosure to a rigid state and maintain the enclosure in the rigid state when oxygen pressure in the interior of the enclosure is cycled between ambient pressure and above ambient pressure.
