What’s large, round and can only be installed via crane? A 40.5 foot hyperbaric oxygen chamber!

Jupiter Medical Center (JMC) received its third Sigma 40 monoplace hyperbaric system at the Wound Healing & Hyperbaric Center on Saturday, September 9, 2012.

Workers removed an entire window and part of the wall of the 1004 building at JMC to install the chamber on the second floor.

JMC has the largest monoplace hyperbaric chambers available in the state of Florida. This third addition offers a 40.5 internal diameter hyperbaric therapy system for maximum patient comfort, safety and reliability. The third chamber will be used primarily for clinical trials and research, in addition to treating patients with hyperbaric oxygen for more than twelve approved diagnoses.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is an adjunctive therapy which increases the amount of oxygen concentration in your blood, allowing the oxygen to pass through the plasma and tissues to the wound site, and promotes the overall healing process.

The Wound Healing & Hyperbaric Center at Jupiter Medical Center is located at 1004 S. Old Dixie Highway, Jupiter, FL. For more information, please call (561) 263-5760 or visit the website at jupitermed.com/wound.
