Mr. Joe Westwood Dear Mr. Joe Westwood, Please allow us to express our sincere appreciation for the opportunity of utilizing topical hyperbaric oxygen therapy at Vencor Hospital, Philadelphia. We have utilized topical hyperbaric treatments on a patient who was presented to us with a massive sternum wound. Three weeks after application of topical hyperbaric treatments the sternum wound has shown a remarkable change. The wound decreased dramatically in size from 20cm(lth.) x 19cm (w.) x 5cm (depth) to 18cm (w.) x 3cm (depth) with extensive tissue granulation and epithelization. We are quite pleased with what the hyperbaric oxygen treatment has accomplished in such a short time. From all the staff, physicians, patient, and patient's family, we are deeply grateful.
Sincerely, |
