The Wound Healing & Diabetic Center

Forest Park Hospital has adopted a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of chronic wounds.

Specialized services to treat chronic wounds may be effective in facilitating the healing process.

Hyperbaric oxygen is now being used as adjunctive therapy in the treatment of a variety of clinical conditions, including:

- Non-healing ischemic wounds
- Refractory osteomyelitis

- Radiation soft tissue injury
- Hyperbaric oxygen treatment may be used in emergency conditions such as arterial gas embolisms and carbon monoxide poisoning.

A skin and wound specialist is available for telephone consultations on skin/wound care issues between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. at (314) 768-3008.
