The Hyperlite hyperbaric stretcher is a folding portable pressure vessel suitable for treatment and when necessary, the transportation of a person under pressure. It provides hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) to the patient wearing an ‘on demand’ breathing mask or hood. Having a hyperbaric stretcher at an accident or emergency site enables a casualty requiring HBO to be treated immediately.

The importance of immediate treatment, especially in diving accidents, cannot be over emphasized. Delay in treatment greatly reduces the likelihood of full resolution. Due to the lightness and portability of the Hyperlite hyperbaric stretcher, it is almost always possible to have a unit on site, wherever one may be. It is rigid when inflated, but when not in use, can be packed away in two compact containers that are easy to carry.
