New chapters address special populations encountered in both practice and on wound certification exams–bariatric, geriatric, pediatric, and the palliative care patient. As in the previous editions, the Wound Care Certification Study Guide continues to provide self-assessment questions at the conclusion of each chapter to help readers identify areas needing further review.

This publication continues to provide the most current and up-to-date guidance and support for scientists and practitioners of hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

These guidelines are essential for facilities that are new to hyperbaric medicine in establishing best practices.

Existing facilities will find this reference indispensable in understanding the current standards and recommendations in maintaining an exceptional hyperbaric program. These guidelines are referenced by the UHMS Hyperbaric Facility Accreditation Manual and therefore are vital in planning and preparing for the hyperbaric survey to receive accreditation status.
