Providing Hope For The More than 8.2 million people in the U.S are living with chronic wounds.

The Story Behind Our Cause

CūtisCare began its Hyperbaric Aware™ campaign in 2021, with the launch of the Hyperbaric Aware™ Website and the first-ever national campaign aimed at raising awareness about hyperbaric oxygen therapy - Hyperbaric Awareness USA™. As part of this initiative, CūtisCare designates May as Hyperbaric Awareness Month each year.

The goal of the Hyperbaric Aware™ campaign is to educate the public about the numerous benefits of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, including improved quality of life, reduced healthcare costs, and the prevention of amputations. By promoting greater understanding and awareness of this innovative therapy, CūtisCare hopes to help more people access the care they need to live healthier, happier lives.

Dr. Juan Bravo

"The successful treatment of problem wounds, like Peripheral Arterial Disease and other arterial insufficiencies, require an integrated team strategy that includes surgery, antibiotics, and other adjuvant therapies such as hyperbaric oxygen when appropriate. When doing so we see a dramatic reduction in amputation rates and significant improvements to the patient's overall quality of life."

The Effects of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

With ongoing research into its potential applications, HBOT continues to demonstrate it's efficacy as a versatile and powerful therapeutic modality, offering numerous therapeutic benefits for patients with various medical conditions. This advanced therapy involves delivering oxygen to hypo-perfused tissues, promoting neovascularization, enhancing antimicrobial activity, and aiding in oxygen-dependent killing of bacteria. HBOT also promotes vasoconstriction, which reduces tissue edema and helps to reverse ischemia-reperfusion injury by limiting leukocyte adhesion. These effects make HBOT a promising treatment option for a wide range of acute and chronic conditions. At CutisCare we're on a mission to raise awareness and accessibility for this life changing, as saving, therapy.
