ABSTRACT:
A portable and collapsible hyperbaric chamber assembly adapted to accomodate the major portion of a patient's body and adapted for connection to a pressurized source of oxygen or other suitable gas. The chamber assembly includes a circular frame which is U-shaped in cross section wherein the closed end of the U is the frame base and the depending portions form the inner and outer frame walls. A flexible tubular chamber member is secured to the outer frame wall and extends downwardly therefrom while a sealing sleeve is connected to the inner wall of the frame. The frame base has connections for receiving pressurized oxygen or other suitable gas. A patient is positioned within the tubular chamber member with the sealing sleeve sealingly contacting the upper portion of his body after which the tubular chamber member is folded below the patient's feet to form an airtight seal whereby an airtight chamber is provided between the tubular chamber member and the sealing sleeve to receive the pressurized oxygen or other suitable gas as required for treatment.
