More than just a treatment for scuba and deep sea divers experiencing decompression sickness, hyperbaric oxygen therapy has evolved during the last 70 years and become an option for more than a dozen other conditions. In part two of this episode, Owen J. O’Neill, MD, MPH, and John Peters, two experts in undersea and hyperbaric medicine, discuss the research driving this field forward, including a clinical trial conducted during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic that offered patients an alternative to ventilation. The study was led by Dr. O’Neill, medical director Division of Undersea and Hyperbaric Medicine at Phelps Hospital. He joins the podcast, along with Mr. Peters, executive director of the Undersea & Hyperbaric Medical Society.
