Patients with diabetic foot
ulcers should not wear a sock on
the ulcerated foot, as exposure
to the extra oxygen is
beneficial for the wound. In
addition, you can instruct your
patient to bring a book or watch an externally mounted LCD TV or external MP3 music
player.
Sechrist offers a convenient sliding LCD monitor that mounts outside the chamber and slides back and forth for the patient comfort.
Patients
should be advised of the
pressure changes they will
likely feel in their ears. This
usually only occurs within the
first 5 minutes. They can be
instructed to yawn, move their
lower jaw or pinch their nose
and blow out their mouth.
Occasionally, this sensation can
be felt between treatments, but
can be relieved the same way. If
a patient is anxious, due to the
confined chamber, they can be
shown relaxation techniques or,
if the doctor feels the
necessity, he/she can be
sedated.
