My brother(age 57) has gone through three very scary days after a staph infection went ballistic and entered his blood stream, which put him into emergency surgery, kidneys shutting down, heart function diminishing, 50/50 chance of death. Glad to report he is improving now, still too soon to say he is out of the woods, but getting better. From talking to my nephew, he was saying that the doctors had put him in a hyperbaric chamber, and that had greatly improved his survival chances question is this: What does a hyperbaric chamber do? I know it has to do with enclosing the patient in a pressurized 100% oxygen chamber, but how does that help the body heal itself?
