Wonder what the indication was.

The center has no money to go after. The director is a fraud

They will try to go after the device manufacturer

Bizarre.

Article said a fire started inside the chamber. I wonder what the ignition source was. Most hyperbaric chambers are pretty bare-bones on the inside. I wonder if they let the kid take something of an electronic nature inside to entertain him.

Cash pay?
 
As a med student I did research w HBOT. There was always a story… usually in Europe - of one catching fire - but it was ridiculous like someone lit a cigarette
 
Don't u know? FEIGER is a huge ambulance chaser.
They take the easy cases. This is the easy case. Dead child. They love that stuff.

Vs the largest injury large firm in USA. Morgan and Morgan. They refused to take my friend wife case with cerebral artery bilateral dissection because she recovered 3 months later from chiropractic injury.

Ambulance chasers….they want show a dead child or a crippled mother of 2. That’s what sells verdicts. Or encourages large settlements.

I took a hyperbaric medicine course at MUSC/Columbia about 35 years ago. The physiology is pretty interesting if you're into that sort of thing. It included much discussion about potential ignition sources - patients had to wear cotton scrubs only, etc. Anyway, they included a horror story to drive home the point - a child was allowed to take a little matchbox-style car into the chamber with him - and unfortunately it was the kind that had a mechanism that would throw a few sparks when it rolled. Instant inferno.

As I recall, the tubular single-patient HBO chambers carry an inherently higher risk than a large multi-patient decompression chamber because the entire chamber contains 100% oxygen at multiple atmospheres of pressure. In a decompression type of chamber, the patient wears a mask or hood and receives 100% oxygen while wearing that, but the chamber itself maintains very close to a room-air oxygen level of 21%.
