HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY FOR Stevens-Johnson syndrome
Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS), also known as Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN), is a rare, serious disorder of the skin and mucous membranes. It is usually a reaction to medications that starts with flu-like symptoms, followed by a painful rash and blisters. The top layer of affected skin dies, sheds, and begins to heal after several days.
After symptoms and complications are under control by your doctor, new skin may begin to grow within several days. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) used as an adjunctive therapy can greatly assist with recovery by accelerating new skin formation.
