The Latest Tools for Making a More Accurate Diagnosis

6. Minimally Invasive Imaging Studies

A variety of minimally invasive imaging studies, including Doppler studies, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and radionuclide imaging, assess extremity blood flow.

7. Transcutaneous Oxygen Testing (TCOM)

TCOM helps determine suitability for hyperbaric oxygen therapy, potential for healing and oxygen perfusion to tissues surrounding a wound.

8. Comprehensive Infection Assessment and Intervention

Our wound care specialists evaluate potential for infections and advise patients on treatment and specialty Infectious Disease referral options.

New Treatment Options Reduce Healing Time

9. Nationally Recognized Clinical Practice Guidelines

We follow nationally recognized clinical practice guidelines for diagnosing, determining appropriate care, and ensuring the highest quality standards.

10. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) exposes patients to 100 percent oxygen in a pressurized hyperbaric oxygen chamber. By promoting the growth of new blood vessels, HBOT stimulates healing and in many cases cuts weeks off the healing process.

11. Electrical Stimulation

Electrical Stimulation promotes healing in slow-to-heal wounds. We partner with Catholic Health physical therapists to provide these treatments.

12. Negative Pressure Therapy

This unique therapy uses a vacuum-assisted device to manage wound drainage and promote the development of new tissue.

13. Pulsed Lavage-Pressurized Irrigation

Pulsed Lavage-Pressurized Irrigation cleans wounds using a high-pressure device to deliver an irrigation solution to the wound.

14. Infrared Light Therapy

Infrared Light Therapy stimulates the healing process for difficult wounds. We partner with Catholic Health Physical Therapists to provide this therapy.
