Hyperbaric medicine, also known as hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), is the medical use of oxygen at a level higher than atmospheric pressure. The equipment required consists of a pressure chamber, which may be of rigid or flexible construction, and a means of delivering 100% oxygen.Operation is performed to a predetermined schedule by trained personnel who monitor the patient and may adjust the schedule as required.he chamber may be pressurised with pure oxygen or compressed air. If pure oxygen is used, no oxygen breathing mask or helmet is needed, but the cost of using pure oxygen is much higher than that of using compressed air. If compressed air is used, then an oxygen mask or hood is needed as in a multiplace hard chamber.
Compliance management is the process which ensures that a set of people are following a given set of rules. The rules are referred to as the compliance standard or compliance benchmark, while the process is what manages their compliance. Compliance management can take many forms.
One major function of health care quality management systems is that of monitoring compliance. Compliance is monitored as part of the quality management's assurance that processes are being followed and patients are receiving optimal care.
