The finale ! 最后的战役

As I mentioned in my previous blog "A day of waiting,沉闷的一天” , for this whole month, besides the KKR program which is obligated to participate, I still have another program which i need to accomplish before my semester break commenced - SPECIAL STUDY of SEM VII.

SPECIAL STUDY is a program which implemented with the objective of gaining more knowledge in the field where you are interested. You can choose the topic FREELY ! Therefore, in this semester VII, my topic is - HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY. which I found it was really really INTERESTING & AMAZING ( Amazed by the mightiness of this therapy ! hah ! )
Guess most of us not really familiar with this kind of therapy because it's a recently advancing medicine. Although it was invented 40 years ago, but it mostly utilized in the treatment of Decompression Sickness (DCS / Diver's Disease / The Bends) which describes a condition arising from the precipitation of dissolved gasses into bubbles inside the body on de-pressurization. DCS most commonly refers to the scuba diving hazard where you ascent from the bottom too rapidly. (wikipedia) DCS actually is not a common event world wide but it's rather common in the WORLD-FAMED HEAVEN of DIVING - BALI ISLAND !!!!

FYI, according to the world statistics, Malaysia have 5 centers of Hyperbaric Therapy Chamber. ( although it still not really common, but still not too bad, yeah ? )

The picture above, the interior view of the chamber... There are two beds inside, if the patient is mild cases, this chamber can fit the maximum of 7 people which you SIT inside ( NOT lying on the bed ) with a mask covered the mouth. It usually take 1.5 hours span in the chamber for those who dive frequently with the purpose to wash out the "silence" bubble in their body. For those who develop DCS , it may take up to 6 hours in the chamber. Of course, the chamber are well-equipped where u are allow to weewee inside the chamber. haha... !!!

The following picture, I'm learning how to moderate the controller. No joke for this, the pressure inside, the percentage of oxygen given, the time, the table... EVERYTHING ! must control precisely....

Of Course, Photo session is the thing i Would NEVER missed out !
It's really a Golden Opportunity to get myself involved in this as This Hyperbaric Medicine WON'T be a part of my Clinical years's Department.

From the outlook, does it look like a SUBMARINE ????

Just want to remind you all, although it's main indication is for the Diver's Sickness. But recent advancing research had shown that it can be a MIRACLE THERAPY in other field as well. This therapy can be an adjunctive treatment in many other field :

1. Diabetic Gangrene
2. Foot Ulcer
3. Osteomyelitis ( Inflammation of bone and spinal cord )
4. Post-trama /Burn Wound
5. Rehabilitation in Stroke
6. Sudden Deafness
7. Skin Graft
8. Beauties and Rejuvenating ! ( Be the specialist doctor in this field ! You will hv the chance to enter the chamber everyday to keep the patient in companion ! and the most important - Keep you pretty and young for FOC whilst saving people's life.. What a wonderful job ? haha...)

So, This Special Study is THE FINALE of the whole long 3.5 years of my theory year !!!! After the presentation exam of this topic on the next monday,
My holiday officially start at 2nd of FEB and have a jet home on 3rd of FEB !!!!! HOORAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
