Do NOT Do THIS Right After Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy!

If you have any travel plans in the middle of your hyperbaric protocol, there are absolutely some things you need to know about when you can or cannot fly in an airplane in and around those sessions in hyperbaric medicine.

This whole conversation about flying after HBOT is all about nitrogen, specifically about the possibility of getting decompression illness (the bends).

So unless you want to risk it and find out how bad the bends can be (and P.S. you can die from it, so I encourage you to take this seriously), watch this video and find out when you can and can’t fly after doing hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

Sigh, I wrote a pretty researched comment explaining why flying after 2.0 ATA HBOT or less, is not really a problem, and it's gone.
I'll rewrite the summary. 2.0 ATA is just 10 meters of diving equivalent.
Flying after diving is the same thing as altitude diving at 8000ft (diving 10 meters deep in an altitude lake), I checked the tables for that and basically they said 10 meter dive at 8000ft is more or less equivalent to 17 meters in the dive tables. Then the dive tables said that with 36% O2/nitrox, you could dive over 2H before needing a deco stop (which means you can't go to the surface right away).
HBOT chambers are way over 36% O2 unless something is very broken.
Then even if things went wrong, it will take you at least 2H from when you get out of the chamber, inside the plane and the plane gets to altitude. that's actually a 2H deco stop that wlil clear whatever little nitrogen you would have.
Also another way to look at this, if it weren't safe, and you did a chamber in mexico city, when you get out of the chamber mexico city is 7300ft altitude and on a hot day the density altitude is higher (worse), so you would get DCS the moment you got out ot the chamber.
So basically, yes, you can fly after doing a chamber, not something to worry about it, but fun discussion nonetheless.
this time I'll save this comment so that I can repost it if it get lost/deleted again

Jason! It's your buddy Brad from Ithaca... So random, but I am about to go into a hyperbaric chamber and this came up as a suggestion to watch. Couldn't believe it was you.... So great to see you doing so well my friend!

In a previous video you stated it has been around for 300 yrs. Now your saying it from scuba diving. I stated I was Military Trained Pysiological Training Specialist. Altitude Chamber and Decompression Chamber. We trained Air crew members of all aspects of what could go wrong in pressurized cabin, loss of that pressurized aircraft. We also were trained medics, we did Hyperbaric Medical Dives, to treat bends, and gas gangrene patients. I did a dive on a young airmen that hat been in an auto accident. Crushed from the hips down, after 24 dives, and most of his lower extremities amputated, he passed. But the gas gangrene was gone. We breathed pure nitrogen, on 65 ft dives, in a 100% atmosphere inside the chamber. During the blood transfusions, it spurted everywhere, my job at the end, was to clean out 2 inches deep pool of blood in a 24 ft chamber. We had wonderful surgeons on our team. I'm 79 now, and would like to relive my experience. I had over 400 hrs at altitude and over 100 hrs diving.

I am flying home to the states from Manila Wednesday took 6 weeks off. Was supposed to have a minimum of 35 Oxygen Therapy Sessions but air pollution caused 3 separate issues of Sinus and Bronchitis. Make matters worse the treatment center will be closed until Tuesday because of the Easter holiday and was hoping to get at 2 “more” treatments in . I only logged in 20 treatments at a cost of $92 a pop. My insurance doesn’t cover Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for PTSD and TBI. Best prices in the world for Oxygen Therapy is in the Philippines, I made a vacation out of it.

Chemistry is amazing! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!

[robertwood]

So many facets that are not apparently clear until one is stepped on, wow
When will an online class be available? I want to learn this.

My local chamber goes to 3 ATA and they're sloppy they let my oxygen run out yesterday which is incompetent especially when your locked in the chamber and have to tap on a port hole and hope someone didn't take a walk..

My HBOT tech says there are no worries with me flying. I am concerned after reading things on the internet. I did have a OTS today after about 18 sessions. I’m flying in 10 days. I will find out my percentage of oxygen. I am there for 2 hours and I believe I’m diving at 45’.

[PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

How about the reverse? I have a friend visiting and we were going to do a session the day after she arrives. Is there an issue with flying *then* doing a HB treatment? Thank you!!

[BlessedDeliverance]

Thank you so much for this! In addition to what you have outlined, are there any additional safety considerations to take into account in the case of the elderly (80's) who are receiving HBOT and are about to undertake high-altitude long-distance flights?

[getdown]

HBOT is like the Wild West just like supplements. I did a 40 min dive at 1.3 ATA in the afternoon. Experienced hyperoxia symptoms and it caused a horrible herxheimer reaction. Person administering had no clue any of this could happen I guess even tho they’d been doing it for 6 years. Still I’m thinking of getting my own HBOT tank to try to heal my brain. Never heard of this rule so thank you vm

[davidpayne]

Can I go scuba diving at 30 feet with 100% oxygen and get the same benefit as a chamber?

[sharoncooper]

Hi...do you know how soon after liposuction can I get this treatment?

[stanthrasher]

I can't breath the 100 percent oxygen for 2 hrs why I can't do 1 hour.

[sullustanmel]

Any benefits to using l ornithine to reduce nitrogen after?

[gregvisioninfosoft]

Worse case scenario, one leaves a hyperbaric oxygen session (with worst case gases breathed) - what is the symptom they experience if they immediately fly into an airplane, or rocket?

[jaydupont]

How would you get an infant to equalise their ears in the chamber?

[Punjabi.Pandit.Secular]

Is there any side effect of this therapy?
Can a normal person can take it like me .

I didn't really understand why dissolved nitrogen alone causes problems, and not dissolved oxygen.
