Refractory Osteomyelitis:
A Chronic Infection That Needs Advanced Treatment
Refractory osteomyelitis is a persistent and difficult-to-treat bone infection that doesn’t respond to standard antibiotics and surgeries. This condition can lead to severe pain, bone deterioration, and even amputation if not managed properly. Fortunately, medical hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is an advanced treatment option that can help accelerate healing, fight infection, and restore bone health.
How Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Helps Refractory Osteomyelitis
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is an FDA-approved treatment that delivers 100% pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber. This treatment is highly beneficial for patients suffering from chronic osteomyelitis because it:
Enhances Oxygen Delivery
Increases oxygen levels in the blood to penetrate infected bone tissue, promoting faster healing.
Stimulates New Bone Growth
Encourages the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis) to support bone regeneration.
Fights Infections Naturally
Strengthens the immune response and helps kill bacteria that thrive in low-oxygen environments.
Reduces Inflammation & Pain
Helps reduce swelling, relieves chronic pain, and improves overall mobility.
Boosts Antibiotic Effectiveness
Increases the efficiency of antibiotics, making them more effective in treating resistant infections.
Insurance Coverage for HBOT
Many insurance providers, including Medicare, recognize the benefits of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for refractory osteomyelitis and may cover the treatment. Our team at Lakeshore Hyperbaric Center in Chicago works closely with insurance providers to help you navigate the approval process and maximize your coverage.
