About

Texas Health Huguley Center for Wound Care and Hyperbaric Medicine serves patients with problem wounds that are slow to heal or not healing through specialized treatment approaches. The center's team of trained physicians and support staff performs comprehensive evaluations to understand the factors affecting each patient's wound healing and develops individualized treatment plans.

The center's approach recognizes that wound healing is complex and often requires multiple treatment methods working together. Rather than relying on a single therapy, the team combines various evidence-based treatments tailored to each patient's specific condition and needs. The physicians work to address underlying factors that may be preventing healing while using advanced techniques to promote tissue recovery.

Services include:

• Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in pressurized chambers where patients breathe 100% oxygen
• Wound debridement to remove devitalized tissue
• Specialty dressings including tissue-based products
• Compression therapy
• Negative pressure wound therapy
• Antibiotic therapy
• Laboratory studies and diagnostic imaging such as X-rays and MRIs
• Non-invasive vascular assessment
• Diabetes education
• Nutritional education

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy may benefit patients with arterial ulcers, chronic wounds, diabetes-related foot and ankle ulcers, crush injuries, gangrene, necrotizing soft tissue infections, non-healing surgical or traumatic wounds, osteomyelitis, pressure ulcers, radiation necrosis, and wounds caused by poor circulation or trauma.
