Advanced Hyperbaric Technologies, Inc., a Subsidiary of Advanced Healthcare Technologies, Inc., Announces the Commencement of a New Topical Hyperbaric Treatment Study Utilizing Its, FDA Cleared, Rigid Extremity Chamber

FARMINGDALE, N.J., Jan. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Advanced Hyperbaric Technologies, Inc., a subsidiary of Advanced Healthcare Technologies, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: AVHC) today announces the commencement of a new topical hyperbaric treatment study utilizing its, FDA cleared, rigid extremity chamber.


New Topical Hyperbaric Oxygen Study

In its continuing effort to document the benefits of topical hyperbaric oxygen treatment of wounds, Advanced Hyperbaric Technologies (AHT) has commenced the first in a series of planned studies of topical hyperbaric oxygen treatment on a variety of wound patients. The latest study is being conducted at Northeast Center for Special Care, a 275 bed traumatic brain and spinal cord injury rehabilitation center, by Dr. Bok Lee, a leading wound care specialist. The study will utilize a specialized oxygen measurement device called an Oximeter. The purpose is to demonstrate that topical hyperbaric treatment delivered by the FDA cleared rigid extremity chamber manufactured by AHT actually increases the oxygen levels at the wound site, thereby eliminating the need, expense and possible risk of full body oxygen chamber treatment.

The initial patient being treated has a pressure ulcer which has been open for FOUR YEARS and has been treated with numerous forms of wound therapy, all of which have failed. In just 7 treatments (one week) with AHT's FDA cleared rigid extremity chamber the wound has decreased by 25%. Based upon this initial result, it is anticipated that the wound will be completely healed within 4 to 6 weeks!

"We are optimistic that the study will document the results that we have been witnessing with this first patient and will support our belief that topical hyperbaric treatment is the safest and most efficient means of delivering this limb and life saving treatment," stated President Phillip Loori.
