Hyperbaric Medicine 2008 has been successfully concluded. We enjoyed a record
attendance and registrants were treated to wide-ranging topics from a knowledgeable
an entertaining faculty. Unique to this years meeting was the inaugural awarding
of the Hyperbaric Research Prize. Stephen R. Thom, MD, PhD was the recipient.
He was recognized for his superb research work and the identification of the
underlying therapeutic mechanism of HBO therapy’s effects in diabetic wound
healing.
The proceedings were recorded. We anticipate that both DVD’s and video-streaming
versions will be available, with ‘Enduring Materials’ education credits
by June or July of this year. If you would like further information on these
recordings and educational credits contact us at: dick.clarke@palmettohealth.org or hope.stack@palmettohealth.org.
